vanity. It would be nice if someone could draft an acceptable speedy case that at least covers child vanities like this one.

 * Delete. Vanity short bio of school kid is utterly non-noteable and not verifiable. Lupo 11:07, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. It does not do much harm for the articles to be in the Wikipedia while the VfD is in progress.   The VfD template at the top places everybody on notice that the article may be in the course of being deleted. --BM 13:28, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete I agree kinderkruft should be speedy material. In regards to non-celebrity, non-public figures under the age of 13, it would seem that publishing their full name, location, school, etc. is not in WP's best interests, even if the information is ostensibly self-supplied.

 * Speedy Delete was a new user test page or something. Sometimes you have to take a rather liberal view of the guidelines. This is an obvious delete and no one will miss it. I also agree with Andrew Lenahan's comment above. -R. fiend 16:46, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * Speedy. Test page. Bart133 03:24, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy. test page, vanity, who knows. Either way, it provides a bit too much idntifying information about name, and geographical location if it is all accurate. At least there is no phone number and sddress, but considering that he has mentioned the name of dear ol' Dad, some psycho stalking net-freak could track this kid down. When will kids learn? The Net just can't be trusted to be safe. Perhaps wikipedia needs a policy dealing with the issue of minors and personally identifying information? i.e.: qualifies for expedient deletion? There are too many laws in too many countries to know wether Wikipedia could be held to any liability should something as I describe here come to pass... Picture the headlines: "Child Abducted after Posting Name and Address on Wikipedia." It's scary just to think about. I know in my school, and many others, the publication of your or another minors personally identifiable information will get you booted off the school network for a year. I'm the sysadmin... I've done it. Weaponofmassinstruction 04:12, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
