[edit] Jan-erik lane

Vanity article in that it was created by the person in question - but maybe it should stay because of notability in that it asserts a certain amount in the volume of work published. Benjaminstewart05 17:06, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

• Strong keep Plainly notable; numerous Google hits. Article needs a lot of work tho', sourcing etc. BlueValour 17:16, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• keep and cleanup if you yourslef admit it is worth having, why did you nominate it? Joeyramoney 19:20, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Comment I did not say that it was worth having, I said that although it was a vanity article (delete?) it did contain some material which could be considered notable (keep?) - so I put it here to see what other users thought, delete or keep - simple. Benjaminstewart05 19:42, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Lane appears to have published a whole bunch of books. The Swedish national library catalogue LIBRIS gives 145 hits for his name (both books and articles). And you can withdraw the nomination if you wish. WP:AUTO is not in itself a deletion reason, just a reason to be wary. up+land 20:38, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and rename to Jan-erik Lane. It needs a cleanup but he seems notable enough for mine. Perhaps we should also advise the author of the relevant guidelines. Capitalistroadster 03:07, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
