Amanda Dickison
Created by a vandal to provide a source for his repeated vandalism of Families. The IMDB offers no results for Amanda Dickison - but Dickinson. Normally I would just redirect, but it offers no encyclopaedic content anyway about a minor actor: Wikipedia is not a listings directory. Since the vandal created it and is the only person (other than stubsorters) editing it, it is liable to grow into a very inaccurate article - 50% is already inaccurate! I've asked the IP several times to provide source, but (s)he keeps reverting aimlessly. The same user has done this before with Mark Wingett (see edit history); using an article for a minor actor to promote his vandalism of Mr Burns! The JPS 12:41, 8 August 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete - Going by the mention of London's Burning the vandal can't even spell the name correctly – per imdb (s)he's talking about Amanda Dickinson anyway, who doesn't appear to have any connection with Families. Tonywalton 13:24, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Said user on *.dialup.xtra.co.nz is apparently obsessed with adding unverifiable "facts" to articles on British actors. That person never provided any sources for the claims, avoids the talk page, but is very persistent. Misspelled article on hardly notable actress, without useful content adds up to a delete, as far as I am concerned. I am willing to reconsider if some real editor wants to keep it or even better, promises to look after it. Rl 15:53, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
 * This is a clear hoax by a repetitive vandal, speedy delete. The user changed the article Families to say Amanda Dicksinson instead of Amanda Wenban (Which is an actor in the series, per IMDB). This is "promoting vandalism" again. —kooo 18:58, August 8, 2005 (UTC)
