Proposed deletion of Sebastian Anstis


The article Sebastian Anstis has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Non-notable. Likely hoax. References cited do not mention any "Sebastian Anstis".

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. utcursch | talk 15:46, 18 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Hello and thank you for your thoroughness. My professor for a class on Renaissance Italy suggested that I do an essay on this historical figure as a case study and mentioned that I should begin by looking into these sources. Since I didn't have time to read through them, I assumed they were enough. It should also be noted that the name "Sebastian Anstis" would have been rendered into the local languages or Italian in many different forms and would probably not appear in a text search of the documents.


 * As my essay progresses I'll add more sources and a lot more detail. One of the purposes of the essay is to use as many primary sources as possible, in the Latin, or at least more recent secondary sources in Italian. I'll add these as I find them. In the mean time, should we convert the article into a stub?


 * Cheers

 * Sorry, I read your message after I nominated the article for deletion (see Articles for deletion/Sebastian Anstis). One of Wikipedia's policies is verifiability, which means the article cannot stay in its current form. Maybe you can move the article to your user space (User:Erl.ebz.thrpe/Sebastian Anstis), until you can find some verifiable sources or the Latin/Italian name of the person, which will help others verify his existence. utcursch | talk 03:24, 23 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, I moved it to my user space. I'll put it back on as I find more sources. Erl.ebz.thrpe (talk) 21:04, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
