[edit] Josef Zirmer

Found this via AFD. At risk of breaking some genealogist's heart, this fellow seems non-notable. Only Google result is this page. Creator has a copy of this article on his/her user page so it will carry on... jengod 05:43, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, unsourced, unverifiable, no indication of notability. Looks like a memorial to a family member, maybe? Fan-1967 05:58, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I can not find anything either that helps this pass WP:NOTE -- Bec-Thorn-Berry 06:24, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete These memorials to family members are always well done. You can usually point to them as models of what a really good start to an article looks like. But the subject matter just isn't encyclopedaic. --Brianyoumans 07:03, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete 2 ghits, hmmm, non-notable. SkierRMH 09:07, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - zero non-wiki ghits. Fails WP:V. I'll get around to prodding the user page one day... MER-C 11:03, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete hm, was a good article.. but not notable. ← ANAS ^Talk? 21:35, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - well-written, but the subject is unfortunately not notable enough for inclusion. Biruitorul 23:14, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - I agree, this is a good article but fails on notability Sue H. Ping 00:00, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I am the author of the article. I have no problem with its deletion, as I am now aware of it's non-notability. Please feel free to delete it. It was part of an art project on archives and historical records for a university course, in which I had to put information about Josef Zirmer (a family member) in the the public domain. I will keep the article on my user page, as it will be needed for my final assessment. Sorry if I have broken any rules, but it won't be happening again. Thanks for everyone's kind words about it being a good article - much appreciated. Out of interest, how does one find the number of hits for a page? Letsfckpeaches 13:32, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
  • I understand. You're welcome for the compliments. :-) We find the number of hits for a page by searching the article title on Google. For example, I searched "Josef Zirmer" (with the quotes) on Google, and came up with two hits. Sue H. Ping 15:10, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
