Scott Hammond

not a notable person no proof of notability is shown, the person has no awards or publications seems like a self made page Redsky89 (talk) 14:51, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm not seeing where there's any notability here. A search brings up pages that aren't really usable as RS, being blogs and the like by non-notable persons and such. The only link that I could find that could be used is a very short blog entry that's not only more about Polaroid ceasing to produce instant cameras but also is written by someone who is a friend of Hammond. There's just no notability here.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 05:16, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - I should note that Tokyogirl79 removed links that were formerly displayed, here, here and here but, no loss, because they were insignificant to establish notability. When I searched "Scott Hammond photographer" with Google News archives, it found results here, here and here for what appears to be a New Zealand-based photographer, but there isn't any evidence that this Scott Hammond has ties with New Zealand. Google Books found one result here supporting his birth year but the content reads like it may have been copied from Wikipedia thus a possible self-reference. I also found this link mentioning his "The Lovely Road" project. Agreed, this photographer is not notable to Wikipedia standards at this time. SwisterTwister   talk  22:03, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
