Stephen Morse

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable poet, doesn't appear to pass WP:AUTHOR. About the time I prodded this, the subject died, so I decided to wait a decent interval to take this to AfD. Note that this was largely an autobiography, and most els are self-referential. I searched for news stories at the time of his death and came up with nothing.

 * Delete. While the article creator can't defend the article now, Mr. Morse lacks sufficient WP:RS to establish WP:BIO. Based on gnews and gbooks searches, it appears there are a few other Stephen Morses who are more notable (yes, I recognize this is a poor argument- but it's harder to find things about this Stephen Morse). tedder (talk) 18:29, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete while it's sad that he died, he doesn't appear to have passed our author guidelines. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  20:59, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
