Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rodeo in the United States
I am the author of the Rodeo in the United States article.  This is an attempt at a well-balanced article in an "underconstruction" state.  Yes, it needs work. My material is sourced from high grade reliable secondary sources per .  It was forced into a stand alone article as most of the material was aburptly and IMO hysterically  deleted by Montana from the Rodeo article who carried on on the talk page about my work.  Apparently, the Rodeo article is "hers".  I didn't know that when I went to work on it and spent five days contributing to it -- even being encouraged on its talk page by others and being told I was doing a good job.  I am the "lead editor" on both the Rodeo and Rodeo in the United States articles.  I am 16 and Montana's disruptive, overbearing, confrontational style at WP frightens me and forces me to seek a corner where I can work quietly and diligently to create a decent article for WP.  I feel like I'm being pistol-whipped whenever she shows up and I literally shudder when she does.  For me, Montana has something of an ownership issue with rodeo.  I'm afraid to do anything because I fear she'll come down hard on me and push me around.  I have tried to work in a collaborative spirit with her and have encouraged her to contribute to the article.   However, she has refused.  Before making a decision please investigate the talk pages for both articles.   I will probably be banned forever for trying to stand up for myself.  Thank you for your interest, patience, and kindness.  I'm leaving now and won't be contributing to WP.  What difference does it make, I'll be banned anyway.  I've met some wonderful people here at WP and I will miss them.  Some have made my brief stay a pleasure and others have made it a living hell
