[edit] Robert Twigger

Delete: It really looks like Twigger's autobiography page. Only one author and no verifiable sources. --awh (Talk) 08:22, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

  • Hmm, after Oscar's rewrite, I guess I would change that to weak keep myself. --awh (Talk) 22:29, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete: Only claim to notability is a prize in an undergraduate essay competition at university. Lukas 08:28, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
Changed my mind: Keep. Somerset Maugham Award makes him notable. Sorry. Lukas 11:11, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak keep actually it looks like he's published a bunch of stuff, but can't see if any of it is verifable Segv11 (talk/contribs) 10:10, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - his books are listed on amazon [1]. --Oscarthecat 10:24, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
Having tidied the page, I consider this a strong keep. --Oscarthecat 11:33, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep - per Oscar the Cat's comments and excellent rewrite. (Although hopefully fans of his works will do some further editing rather than Twigger himself) MKaiserman 13:56, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep several published books -- Astrokey44|talk 14:47, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per rewrite and notability claims above. —Quarl (talk) 2006-01-13 06:02Z
  • Keep. The William Hill award also makes him notable, and yeah, I've got a copy of Angry White Pyjamas at home, so I know he's real. --Calton | Talk 05:37, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
Angry White Pyjamas itself isn't particularly real, but I suppose that's a different story :-) --awh (Talk) 14:33, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
