Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/August Donnelly

August Donnelly

appears to be a non-notable biography. Speedy deletion tag was removed twice. My vote is a very weak delete. Mostly listing because of the repeatedly removed tag, with no attempt to add any references or content that would prove notability. Improbcat 00:40, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Unable to find any references on the internet (not to say they don't exist). Reads like an advert, either autobiographical or written by a close friend so conflict of interest is an issue. --Daniel J. Leivick 00:59, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Looks to be a vanity page for an utterly non-notable person. -- Necrothesp 01:17, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:BIO, WP:V, WP:RS, and WP:ADS. Possibly speedy delete per CSD A7.--TBCΦtalk? 03:03, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Notability has clearly not been established. --Nevhood 03:32, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Non-notable. I can't find any reliable references through Google or any other search engine, and the page reads much like an advertisement (same with Daniel J. Leivick). Seicer (talk) (contribs) 03:43, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and salt the earth: Not enough information, at least I couldn't find any on the Internet, to build a verifiable, NPOV article. The only source is his own site, but we need 3rd party sources and there do not seem to be any. Possibly advertising. If an autobiography it sure don't seem neutral. So delete the page, and salt the earth so he doesn't try to create more advertising. 74.38.32.195 08:10, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- You should create a user account, IP comments are not recognized in deletion debates Just H^{editor review} 13:00, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - Comment That is not correct, while anonymous contributions are subject to weighting by the closing admin (as are all AfD arguments, for that matter), anonymous editors are allowed to comment. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me Please review me!} 17:41, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I can't find any assertion of notability but if there is any then keep. --Meno25 08:19, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and Salt - 27 google hits for "august donnelly" the only ones of which that are actually about him being his own website and his myspace page, salt it for the tag deletion which is probably a good indicator of future behavior - Arch NME 12:57, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and close SNOW time. Just H^{editor review} 12:58, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, not speedyable as it contains some notability assertion, but I can't find a thing to back it up. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me Please review me!} 17:39, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
DO NOT DELETE This page is most certainly of a notable artist for which I can vouch. I created this entry at his request from an article written by the signed author. Albeit true that he is up and coming and certainly not widely known yet, it is indeed very petty and immature to make unfounded commentary simply because you may not be familiar with the artist in question. - --74.110.79.20 00:04, 4 March 2007 (UTC) A.

The people here are not making unfounded commentary. They are making comments based on the research they have done online.
