[edit] Andy Tabar

Andy Tabar (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Delete: Non-notable. Seems to be an effort at promotion. The only contributor to the article was a single person whose only contributions have been editing the article. I trimmed a large quantity of excess verbiage and duplicate sentences and puffery adjectives and an infobox which duplicated his web link. Much of the verbiage was like "Andy Tabar is a young entrepreneur with new visions and high expectations." I removed capitalization and linking that served just as gaudy decoration. What remains is a non-notable 20 year-old business student who has a web page company and got given a speaking engagement and a local business award. Sole proprietor web page companies are not notable. Hu 10:19, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom. I previously prodded. I can't determine what this guy's actually done to make him notable, other than clamor for notability. - CobaltBlueTony 14:01, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - seems completely non notable and fails WP:BIO and WP:V. Jayden54 16:51, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep Info from credible sources. This person is accomplished with factual achievements. Thank you for your comments. Sources have been added. Am currently rereading the Wikipedia Manual of Style and criteria for bios of living persons so this can conform. Brian212 23:11, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete falls far short of meeting WP:BIO, style issues aside. There are millions of non-notable entrepreneurs who don't deserve articles—my home area of Silicon Valley is crawling with them—and this is just one more. Xtifr tälk 01:31, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment WP:Bio states that notability has multiple forms of indication. ie: Central Criteria, Alternative Tests. Such information is used directly from third party sources. If you need to make further clarification, review the original information and trim the content as you see fit. The intention was to cover the information that is publicly available about the subject, nothing more. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brian212 (talk • contribs) 21:55, December 26, 2006
