Remarkably like a BLP, at first glance, looking closer it is the ramblings of somebody who is differently sane. No notability - needs removing from the project. Roxy, Zalophus californianus. barcus 05:40, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete - No evidence of notability. Article has very little to due with the subject anyways. - Hirolovesswords (talk) 06:35, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete An article written by an SPA editor (possibly a vanity piece?) who seemingly doesn’t understand how wikipedia works. The cited references are not about this subject. This is entirely original research. If this subject is notable this article needs to be re-started from scratch using third party sources. Regarding that, the only coverage I can find are trivial, promotional, or self-generated. The subject is apparently a “colorful” local familiar, and writes/creates art about and conducts tours of Salem, Mass. Anything approaching third party is local tourism-type coverage. The works themselves likewise have only gotten promotional type attention, if any. ShelbyMarion (talk) 15:50, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete I've been trying to imagine what this article would look like if the 90-95% of it that is pure fluff would be removed, but even then I don't see an article that would sustain a claim of notability, nor do I see the sources in the article or available online being useful to support a claim of notability.

 * Somebody did take a hatchet to it earlier today to produce this but it has been reverted. I would have chopped much more, but it isn't cricket during a deletion discussion I believe? -Roxy, Zalophus californianus. barcus 22:36, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
 * , the article trimmed down to the material about the subject looks even more tenuous than I had imagined. Edited down to the essentials, there's still no claim of notability and no sources to back it up. Alansohn (talk) 03:22, 9 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Strong Delete A very large piece of garbage. The sources are as weak as could be, and the only decent ones (NYT, WaPo) seem to refer to something only peripheral to the subject. Delete with prejudice, hast, abandon.104.163.153.162 (talk) 23:55, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Even referring to these sources as being "peripheral" to the subject seems too generous. "Nothing" might be the better word! ShelbyMarion (talk) 19:27, 9 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete the fucking page already. After all the paring down that I did, it's clear that he posted this to impress his parents. They probably still have his grade school art on the refrigerator.
