Ghost hunters incorporated
Non notable thrill seeking group. Also reads like an advert. Woohookitty(meow) 08:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep at least for now - the group seems notable enough, and I'll inform a few editorws interested in paranormal-related groups. CP/Mcomm |Wikipedia Neutrality Project| 10:52, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I'd say delete. Based on the page creator's username (User:Nuekerk) and team founder "Greg Newkirk" name similarities, I'd peg it as a vanity page. LeeNapier 15:57, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep at least for now. It WAS a vanity page. But since most ghost hunting groups are little more than friends who get together, this one is no different. Besides, researchers are beginning to study the sociological reasons people engage in this 'sport'. This entry may be useful to them. LuckyLouie 17:14, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete. Wikipedia is neither a free advertising service nor a storehouse of case studies in sociology. This group is non-notable, receiving 65 (largely self-created) ghits. Their most high-profile outlet is their Myspace page. And as LeeNapier says, it appears as though member Greg Newkirk created the page himself. Bhumiya (said/done) 19:31, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per Bhumiya. A small group making unverifiable claims about themselves is not a viable subject for an encyclopedia article. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 20:26, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, unverifiable. Wikipedia is not an advertising service. --Core des at talk. ^_^ 00:49, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
