Hal Waller article CSD
Hi, I placed the Speedy deletion tag on Hal Waller. This is my message that I posted on the talk page:
 * It would help the case for his notability if you added references from unaffiliated third party sources that assert his notability. A reference from the institution at which he is employed is generally not considered neutral and shouldn't be used as the soul basis of establishing notability. If you need any help, please feel to leave me a message. -Cquan (talk, AMA Desk) 01:24, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
 * In general, any sources that are directly affiliated with the subject (whether they be places of past employment or institutions attended) are basically primary sources and are not sufficient to establish notability. You basically need unrelated sources. For example, articles in a reliable publication where the person in question is the subject or discussed in some detail are good items for notability, as are substantial third party awards and recognitions. As a note, the sources need to be non-trivial: i.e., being listed in the phonebook or a long list of people somewhere is trivial. An article discussing a person's significant contributions to society would be an example of a non-trivial source. Hope this helps. -Cquan (talk, AMA Desk) 03:24, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
