Alpsten family

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Created by an WP:SPA solely dedicated to creating articles on this family, which seems to have no WP:RS coverage. Even the basic claim that they originate from Småland doesn't seem to be covered anywhere. The only member of the family who is potentially notable is Ellen Alpsten. Wikipedia is not a web host for vanity projects like this so the article should be deleted. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 19:02, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete - I agree entirely with Spiderone's assessment of this article and those associated with it. Even the one on Ellen Alpsten is largely promotional of her novels. Ingratis (talk) 19:40, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete per Geschichte. Vanity page for vanity articles which are soon to also be deleted at AFD.  Dennis Brown - 2&cent; 11:30, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and Geschichte. Fails GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 16:35, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - Does not meet notability standards due to a lack of sigcov. Appears also to be a WP:CONFLICT. Wikipedia is not a genealogy. Family histories should be presented only where appropriate to support the reader's understanding of a notable topic and this article is not aiding this purpose.
