[edit] Arthur Chalinsky

Arthur Chalinsky (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Hardly any reference to him on Google, none at Google News. His "controversial 2006 book" doesn't seem to be available from Amazon. Looks like a vanity page. —Chowbok ☠ 14:49, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

• Delete unless re-written and properly sourced - if it's a vanity piece, it's an odd one, as it mentions a book that "nobody read" - which is hardly enyclopedic! -- JediLofty ^{User ¦ Talk} 15:07, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
  • The "nobody read" bit was vandalism added after the nomination. I've reverted it.—Chowbok ☠ 15:20, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

• Delete. Agreed. No Find sources: Arthur Chalinsky — news, books, scholar --DoubleBlue (Talk) 22:23, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
• Delete unless citations from reliable sources are added to comply with the verifiability policy. Borderline speedy. See WP:HOLE. Stifle (talk) 14:39, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Per above.Divinediscourse (talk) 20:00, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
• Strong Delete. So completely non-notable [1] and bogus that it probably qualifies as WP:HOAX. Qworty (talk) 17:57, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Non-Notable. May be a hoax.--RyRy5 (talk) 19:20, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - I'm familiar with most Canadian political writers, and his name draws a big zero for me. Risker (talk) 00:40, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - In addition to all of the above, if he's best known for his book, which we can't find, there's the compounding of the problem resulting from Wordpress TOSing him. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 19:17, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
