Lucas Hardeman

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable per WP:BIO and WP:CREATIVE. No significant coverage online from WP:Reliable sources apart from passing mention in Newsweek article (cited). Last article of a former Walled garden, the rest of which have been speedied or AFD'd: see creator's user talk page. Under-referenced section on early and personal life suggests WP:COI or WP:AUTOBIO:. Prod contested by creator. MuffledThud (talk) 15:38, 23 December 2009 (UTC) :Comment agreed, especially about userfying: I suspect the subject will be notable in a few years' time.

 * Delete a delightfully written article that has no available sourcing per Google News, and nothing but social, personal, fan, or Self-published websites found with a regular Google search. We might userfy it to its author until such time as Hardeman gets some recognition.... but as of now, the BLP fails inclusion criteria.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 09:12, 24 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment - I can accept that. I just spent the last hour and a half reading all the articles on notability, COI, Walled Gardens, proper sourcing, Google searches, etc. I do now have a better understanding of how all this works. To take the mystery out of all this, yes it is an AUTOBIO of sorts, edited by Livewire legend and myself. I found the articles No_amount_of_editing_can_overcome_a_lack_of_notability and An_article_about_yourself_is_nothing_to_be_proud_of not only humourous, but quite helpful.


 * We'd be happy to userfy this page, until such a date as the subject is indeed notable according to the guidelines.

 * Comment - Ditto for the film Life As We Knew It. (film) I'll be sure to contact User:Cirt to ask about moving it to the sandbox.

 * Comment note that User:Archer Drezelan and User:Livewire legend have been accused of WP:Sockpuppetry, along with an anonymous IP and a third account, which attempted respectively to blank this discussion and remove the AFD notice from Lucas Hardeman. See Sockpuppet investigations/Killercali. MuffledThud (talk) 11:11, 28 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Dude, why should we be punished for some other jackass who blanked the page? Archer Drezelan and I both have admitted to our mistake. Do a checkuser on killercali; we don't know who that is! I'm asking to save the page, or userfy or whatever you call it; and to let us keep our accounts. That's all.Livewire legend (talk) 10:11, 30 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete per the lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. The sources in the article are mostly blogs, websites that are affiliated with the subject, or passing mentions. A Google News Archive search returns no relevant results, and this is the same with a Google Books search. This article should be deleted for failing Biographies of living persons, Notability (people), and Verifiability. Cunard (talk) 02:12, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
