Bob Daubney
Not quite speedyable, unfortunately, as the article does assert the subject's notability, but those claims are tenuous and unverified. Only reference is subject's personal web site. 56 ghits (35 unique), many of which are directory listings for subject's bowling supply store. Started at Bob Daubney (Legend) (I kid you not) by an editor most of whose other contributions are vandalism or nonsense pages. -- Vary | Talk 18:12, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete: nn bowling merchant, though I am obviously bowled over with awe at his being "the first bowler in history to bowl a 300 with a rubber-plastic hybrid bowling ball in 1978"... David Mestel(Talk) 18:17, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per nomination. However, I'm not sure I agree that there's a claim of significant notability here. Incidentally, the original text of this article is a direct copy from his website. ScottW 18:56, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
