In your article on the above you state that the 1st Baronet's father was a military engineer and one time Marshal of Berwick whose name was also Thomas. I have recently found a reference that shows that tis may be the wrong assumption. The reference comes from the 'Peerage of England' Volume III, dated 1776, and gives the father of the 1st Baronet as the eldest son of Sir Thomas Marshal of Berwick. Please see following:-
Thomas eldest son of Sir Edward was constituted on the 16th of July 35 Henry VIII Receiver general of all and singular the honours &c appointed for payment of the soldiers in garison at Berwick and Supervisor of all the buildings and fortifications of that town as also the castle of Warke He was likewise Marshal of Berwick and in 1 Edward VI being Captain of a band of Light horsemen in that army which then inwaded Scotland under the command of the of Somerset he had the misfortune to be taken prisoner with Sir Ralph Bulmer Knight and Robert Crouch whom Hollinshed mentions to be men of right good courage and approved service and at this time disressed by their own too much forwardness and not by the enemies force He was afterwards made Governor of Aymouth fort six miles distant from Berwick also master of the ordnance in that expedition made into Scotland in 2 Elizabeth By his first wife Anne daughter of James Maleverer Esq he had no issue but by his second Barbara daughter to John Baxter Esq he had Thomas his son and heir Henry William and Edward Isabel Jane and Barbara Which Thomas married Mary daughter of Gabriel Fairfax of Steeton in com Ebor Esq and had issue Thomas his son and heir Robert Edward and two daughters His eldest son Thomas Gower of Stittenham was 7 eight weeks old in September 1584 and having been knighted by King James the First was created a Baronet 2 June 1620 18 Jac I He married Anne daughter and heir to John Doyley of Merton in com Oxon Esq and by her who died the 28th of Oétober 1633 and was buried in the church of St Clements Danes had issue Sir Thomas Gower his successor Doyley Gower a Colonel of Dragoons in the service of King Charles the First and other sons.
Sir Thomas Gower was knighted at Whitehall the 24th of 1730 and succeeded his father in his estate and title of Baronet He was a sufferer for his loyalty to King Charles the First having been twice High Sheriff of Yorkshire and attended on the King when he was shut out of Hull and raised a regiment of Dragoons of which his brother before mentioned was Colonel He had two wives Elizabeth daughter of Sir William Howard of Naworth Castle sister to Charles Earl of Carlisle and 2dly Frances daughter and coheir of Sir John Leveson of Haling in Kent and of Lilleshul in com Salop by Frances his wife daughter and heir of Sir Thomas Sondes of Throwley in Kent elder brother of Sir Michael Sondes Bart By which last Lady this Sir Thomas Gower had issue two sons Edward and William ancestor to the present Lord Gower also a daughter Frances
Explanation - meaning of '16th of July 35 Henry VIII' = the thirty fifth year of the reign of King Henry the 8th which calculates as 1544 (1509+35). Likewise '1 Edward VI' equates to 1547. Therefore Sir Thomas Gower Marshal of Berwick must have been born around 1520 at the latest.
This would mean that the Father of Sir Thomas Gower 1st Baronet was NOT Thomas Marshal of Berwick but his son, also called Thomas. Since the 1st Baronet was born about 1584 then IF Thomas Gower (Marshal of Berwick) had been the father then he would been aged at least sixty, unlikly for these times. thew only other explanation would have been if both father and son had been Marshal's of Berwick. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.41.75.92 (talk) 09:53, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

How can I review a draft? L293D (✉) 13:33, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
Dear Help desk experts,
I'm trying to start editing an article about the organization I work for. Unfortunately, when I type in our name in the search bar, it leads me to an article where the organization is mentioned (NOT an article/page about my organization). Since the organization's name doesn't appear as a red link, I am not able to start creating an article about it, which is very frustrating.
The name of my organization is "International Cocoa Initiative (ICI)". The article, in which ICI is mentioned, is this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harkin%E2%80%93Engel_Protocol#2005_progress_and_Joint_Statement
How do I manage to create an article about the organization itself?
Many thanks for your help on how to proceed.
Best, Marta — Preceding unsigned comment added by ICI cocoa (talk • contribs) 14:05, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

Is it possible that the article I created and submitted last year has been forgotten? It is Draft:Revolutionary Left.
