Siamandas


Article has been userified and deleted several times. Procedural nomination to decide this. Metros232 04:34, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Keep this If someone puts up a modest note on who they are and resources they have created, that would be available for the internet world free to look at, what is wrong with that? As someone who has established Winnipeg and Manitoba's largest on-line photo galleries and who has produced 6 hour long television documentaries on Winnipeg's history, and who has written 250 stories of Manitoba history, I would argue it is an asset to have this information and these links vailable to the general public. People can see and read 350 pages of information for free. They can look at 10,000 pictures for free. George Siamandas
 * Delete - Clear COI - The user who created the article, User:Siamandas has had no edits outside of this article & his user page. NN & poorly written too... Spawn Man 07:38, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep and de-POV. Article appears to assert notability, but is sadly short of sources. It does appear to be a WP:COI but consider; would this have been listed for AfD or would it have been cleaned up on its own merits, if written by User:Somebody not called Siamandas?

 * Speedy delete as spam and conflict of interest; remove from user page as well. and  and have added external links to related websites to 20 (and counting) articles. JonHarder 17:46, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, but fix. This article needs to be fixed, not deleted. -Toptomcat 23:03, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Correct me if I am wrong, but I have always assumed that notability implied being notable generally, not just in Winnipeg. --Anthony.bradbury 23:23, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Not only is this a terribly formatted and written article, which in and of itself is not significant enough grounds for deletion, it also doesn't seem to establish sufficient notability. If better sources regarding notability are found I'd support a keep. --The Way 07:15, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
