• Delete. Gets 23ish Google hits. -Splash 02:04, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete. Meets criteria under case A7, no assertion of significance. - Thatdog 02:06, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
  • I toyed with that idea, but concluded that the possibility was there that the "freelance writer" thing is an assertion of note. However, I think I was wrong on that point, since it is just a statement of what he does for a living and having a job isn't notable. -Splash 02:34, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Thatdog --Mysidia 02:51, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, but I would argue that claiming to be a writer is a notability claim; similar to claiming to be a professor, so it isn't really a speedy candidate. --Scimitar ^parley 13:40, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. not notable. jni 14:21, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy delete a statement that a person is a member of a profession, whether writer, professor, doctor, or lawyer is not IMO a claim of notability. there are tens of thousands of each in the world, many not notable. I have marked this for speedy. DES 15:57, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Not apparently notable. --SarekOfVulcan 19:04, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy delete article was written by someone unfamiliar with wikipedia practices, note the poorly written image link, so welcome to wikipedia, if you need help or advice, feel free to ask, but we don't include articles like this generally, if there is enough information available to write an article, and that information is the kind of information that belongs in an encyclopedia, please do write the article. Don't take it personally if this one gets deleted. Pedant 20:24, 2005 July 28 (UTC)
