Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Israel Hilton

The result was   speedy delete under the Biographies of living persons policy. This is an atrocious article. Its creator,, has stated, on the article's talk page, that xyr reason for creating this page is that "Israel Hilton deserve[s] serious attention". The article is purportedly sourced, as noted below, to the subject's own MySpace page, which of course says no such thing as the article itself does. In fact, the "sourcing" is entirely bogus. It's of the "Look at this person's picture! Aren't I right?" form. (I'm carefully not repeating the analysis made in the article, in this closure.) That's completely unacceptable for Wikipedia. This is a non-public figure, who has not had the "serious attention", in the form of studies by reliable sources, that would allow content that accords with our content policies to be written here. Wikipedia is not for stirring up such attention. This is not a travelling freak show, nor a supermarket tabloid newspaper. It is an encyclopaedia. Uncle G (talk) 01:02, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

I removed the Speedy A7 tag as I believe the article did not qualify for a speedy because it attempted to assert notability; however believing that it would be a non-controversial deletion I proded it. It has since been contested and I feel that it does not meet the standards of WP:BIO and it lacks verifiable sources per WP:V (myspace and a private picture gallery being the only sources.)
