Deletion of Iain McLaughlin

Comment: The article as it stands definitely has problems. It is almost entirely unsourced and, while I am reasonably certain that everything in the article is substantially true, I have not (at least yet) been able to verify most of it from independent reliable sources. However, the one source in the References section of the article is definitely reliable, even though it's probably too slight to establish notability by itself - it's the subject's entry in the Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, and the very fact that it exists suggests to me that the subject is likely to be notable (the Encyclopedia of Science Fiction contains far fewer Doctor Who-related articles than does Wikipedia). The subject is also verifiably one of the leading scriptwriters for The Beano.http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/7741036/Boy-seven-has-story-published-in-The-Beano.html Under the circumstances, I would think it advisable to give an extra week to see if anyone on ikiproject Comics|Wikiproject Comics or ikiproject Doctor Who|Wikiproject Doctor Who (neither of which seem to have been informed of this discussion) can do better on identifying reliable sources than I have
