That may be true, but keep in Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. There is a certain way we present facts here. For example, Neutrality, Verifiability, and with Reliable sources. Not adhering to these guidelines will result in the readers dismissing us as a gossip site--Chanaka L (talk) 03:18, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Anthurium andreanum 'Royal Flush'

The article Anthurium andreanum 'Royal Flush' has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I can find no WP:SIGCOV. Cultivars do not have the presumed notability of species.

Wikipedia page

The edits and page I created was done with a lot of research and it took hours to complete. A lot of other Wikipedia pages related to the topic has less citations and notability. Please don’t harm my hours of work and contributions to Wikipedia. Romesh67 (talk) 11:55, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

I assure you it is nothing personal against you. I still think Ahinsa Wickremetunge is not notable enough to have an article here. I must ask you this, all your contributions are related to Lasantha Wickremetunge. Are you in any way connected to his family? If you want to cherish your contribution, why don't you write about a flower or a wild animal, or some social or economic aspect of Sri Lanka? Let me assure you, here in Wikipedia, we work through consensus. So I cannot "harm" your contributions at my "will" alone. Chanaka L (talk) 12:16, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

I worked as a reporter in the media and have met mr wickrematunge but do not know his family. I think the case filed against mr gotabaya is of public interest and I have covered it myself in the past. I worked very hard on all these edits. A lot of other pages with regard to the topic have less citations and notability. Romesh67 (talk) 13:30, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

Let me ask you again, Could you be an employee of Leader Publications, current or former? I did not deny the gravity of the death of Lasantha. Whataboutism is not a valid argument, I am afraid. Chanaka L (talk) 13:43, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

No I am not. I’m a retired reporter. Romesh67 (talk) 13:45, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
