Hampel
Vanity article, little information, unverified (Author posts this as the edit summary when creating the article: Info obtained 1994-2000 by email during genealogy research. First two sources unverified) --NMChico24 03:33, 29 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep This article helped me find the roots to my last name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.68.223.62 (talk • contribs)
 * Delete I find many articles about people who share my last name. I don't find one about my last name itself, or a half-dozen others I checked. I can't see any purpose in this. Fan1967 03:29, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, sounds like original research. --M e rovingian { T C @ } 03:39, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Geneaology is covered in WP:NOT. --djrobgordon 03:41, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Article is not vain, nor a geneaology; we have plenty of name articles with diverse content; we don't delete stubs for being stubs; and there's a huge difference between "unverified" and the capital offense of "unverifiable". At least part of it is certainly not original research. Melchoir 03:44, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * If anyone can provide sources and a claim of notability, I'd be happy to change my vote. --djrobgordon 03:58, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * From the article: Hans Bahlow, Deutsches Namenlexicon. Notability I'm not so sure on, but you could argue that names are inherently notable, like towns. Melchoir 04:06, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * You can argue lots of things. But the bottom line is, when even the article's author claims 2/3 of her/his sources are unverified, it provides for a pretty dubious basis for an encyclopedia article.  --NMChico24 09:51, 30 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete, at this point, non-notable and unverified. --Coredesat talk 04:54, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - could be a disambig page in the future but there are not enough articles to reference. Perhaps when Hampel Portable Toilets And Portable Sanitation Products and Hampel Corp are created this will be useful. --Peripitus (Talk) 05:36, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Per unverificationage. Black-Velvet  18:09, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
