[edit] Ed Thelen

Ed Thelen (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

A WP article for a not-notable web admin? All the external links go to his website. There is no single reliable source to back the verifiability policy. Dekisugi (talk) 07:24, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

• Delete - Per nom. Fails WP:BIO. Searching turned up no reliable sources. Also there appears to be a WP:COI per the author's username. Wisdom89 _{(T / ^C)} 07:29, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
• (Speedy?)Delete. fails to establish notability per WP:BIO. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 07:54, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

• I take exception at the "Obvious spam" clause. However, I accept that I failed to establish notability. After reviewing the Wikipedia:BIO page, I agree that I would, at the very least, need to restructure the fundamental presentation of the Ed Thelen web page. Though, I'm not sure I've got any concrete notability reference to hang the entry on. I'll discuss the matter with Ed to see if I've missed anything of import which would settle the issue. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rthelen (talk • contribs) 09:13, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
