Alright,  through all of the various discussions on various article:talk pages, AN/I, and user talk pages I see so many different conversations.  Well, people keep saying that I could use a mentor.  That I have turned it down.  Guess what, look at my userpage, I have asked for one and still ask for one.  .  It has also been stated I keep using non RS.  If you look here, I state that when a source is stated to be non-RS I never use it again.   I saw that Niteshift went to RS/N to identify usadojo and ashidakim as non/RS. I never used those sources again. I used RS/N to identify if boxrec and judoinsider are reliable sources (although I don't have a reliable answer).  I primarily just use Google news and google books, but user 82 or maybe niteshift (I am unsure which one) stated that even books on that might not be considered to be RS such as  written by Al Gotay because they are written by him are unreliable (when I was only using them as an example of books he wrote for his own notability as an author).  Again, I don't work for wikipedia or any organization that wants to have articles up.   What I do here is volunteer my time to disseminate information (I was trying to work within the guidelines).

I will make an admission, I am an urban male of color from an urban environment.  For the most part, I am writing for a specific audience.  I don't expect individuals who are from different environments to see the world in the same way I do.  People like Marcus Garvey or Buffalo Soldier's may not be important to the general American but are pretty important to  those in the African American community.  WP:WORLDVIEW.  Dutty Boukman is important in the history of Haiti and the African diaspora, but an unknown when it comes to the majority of the  anglo world.   It is difficult to find information from mainstream media sources on minorities on many important figures.  Think about how hard it is to find information on historical individuals such as Malcolm X, Frederick Douglass, George Washington Carver on BBC News, Time Magazine or Newsweek.  You may find some information on Ebony Magazine, Essence or Jet Magazine.  Think about how hard it is to find moderately notable figures as shown here.    The use of blogs  and indb   does highlight some individuals but wouldn't be considered to be a reliable source.  So how can I find online sources? Printed sources I know can be used, but if people can't see the books there is little in the way of Verifiability.   Thus we have issues like Basile Croquère  and George Cofield and listed in  black heroes in the martial arts  not having a wikipedia page.  Jose Landi was deleted in March 2014 and later speedily deleted when I tried to recreate it.  This forced me to have to take it to DRV to have it recreated.  This is for an individual who is considered to be a top 10 black martial artist in the history of MMA.     

Fact remains blacks and latinos make up about 80 million people in the United States.  About 1/4 of the population  but many important individuals in their history is underrepresented on wikipedia.
Call me an idealist, as I have read about the decline of wikipedia from how newer users are treated  , male oriented with a western bias  .  I read the New York Times writing that ""“The stereotype of a Wikipedia editor is a 30-year-old white man, and so most of the articles written are about stuff that interests 30-year-old white men,” said James Hare, president of Wikimedia D.C., the local branch of the foundation that runs Wikipedia. “So a lot of black history is left out.”""   Now please don't accuse me of being a racist because of me bringing up the quote.  I won't even bring up the problems of sexism on wikipedia. [http://www.nybooks.com/blogs/nyrblog/2013/apr/29/wik
