Ann Marie Curling
Non-notable biography, probably a vanity page. (One anon. user has been constantly updating it with new information about what is probably herself.) Note that the external link to her work (which has no page on wikipedia), the long details about her private hobbies and family life, plans for the future, politicans she likes, what major she has changed to during college, etc. It seems like she only has an entry because she supports "our next President, Mitt Romney". Reading it over I can't see any reason why it belongs on Wikipedia. Zagsa 04:20, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable, vanity page. Google pulls a a few hits, but they are related to her support of a presidential candidate in 2008 and do not make her notable. Viridae Talk 04:47, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete the Globe article linked at the bottom of the page provides very strong indication that this page has been created as part of a well-organized operation to gather credibility for this blog. Two users account for most of the edits on the page. One of them User:Parachutegurl has spammed the page of Netroots (spam reverted) and Mitt Romney. The other user is anonymous but that IP is responsible for deleting a negative comment on the talk page of Ann Marie Curling. Pascal.Tesson 05:43, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete per Pascal.Tesson. Wikipedia is not a promotional tool. This AFD may need to be monitored for vandalism, if negative comments on this person are being removed from the talk page. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 06:08, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable vanity biography. —Quarl (talk) 2006-07-02 09:03Z 
 * Delete Wikipedia is not a personal website. SM247 My Talk  10:33, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete. Seems Non-notable per above editors but I'll say weak on the basis of 12,000 Google hits. Going through the hits seem a repeating of the same message to blogs and message boards but there might be something notable in the pack that I missed. Ifnord 15:50, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Only 62 of those hits are unique. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 19:06, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * How right you are. Ifnord 13:48, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete as a vanity article. --Tachyon01 18:09, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:WEB. The Alexa ranking for her blog's web site is 289,072. --Metropolitan90 03:34, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as nn-bio and minor campaign volunteer and blogger. --MCB 05:06, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Prior to my editing them out, this was replete with (purported) revelations about her children's medical conditions: conditions for which we have no verification and which, enshrined in this way forever on the Internet, might have consequences for them later in life. - Nunh-huh 05:13, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep She is a poitical figure, and thus has a broad range of appeal. Deletion is too harsh. Add negative comments and see if it is deleted. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.248.218.111 (talk • contribs) 15:02, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete for failing WP:BIO --WinHunter (talk) 15:17, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Zos 23:08, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable/vanity. Royalbroil 04:16, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete per Pascal.Tesson. "Delete" because this article does not meet notability standards and it's the right thing to do; I'd say keep otherwise in spite of my general sense of annoyance. "Strong" because of the general stridency of Parachutegurl and her faithful sidekick, 12.219.68.38, in spamming links around Wikipedia. (Romney does not need this sort of person antagonizing people.)--A. B. 04:53, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
