Susanne Feinbaum

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Appears to be hoax or non-notable, as the references are fake and I am unable to find reliable sources. One book cited as a source doesn't seem to exist, and of those that do exist there is at least one – Renegade: The Lives and Tales of Mark E. Smith – in which Feinbaum is not mentioned. snigbrook (talk) 12:55, 20 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment: This article is definitely not a hoax. A Google search shows that there is such a person as Susanne Feibaum. Notability, however, is a different matter. Given claims that she is an "influential" "pioneer", the lack of web coverage is surprisingly sparse. Or not so surprisingly. Mr_pand [ talk | contributions ] 13:30, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep A quick Google search found the video to the techno song she recorded, and there were website mentions to exhibitions of her work, so there is some notability there. The question appears more to be the validity of the sources (and can we be sure that one source "doesn't exist", as opposed to having just been published in such a limited number that it is unavailable?) Either way, I see the article clearly as not a hoax. Eauhomme (talk) 16:11, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I couldn't find anything about exhibitions (where were the exhibitions?), also it's unlikely that a Google search finds no information about two of the books, or about their authors, particularly as one was published by a major publisher, and also that a search of the publisher's website also returns no results. A possible explanation is that the song and video were created, and that a Wikipedia article was created with a false assertion of notability so that it would avoid speedy deletion. snigbrook (talk) 17:26, 20 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete as hoax Bullshit meter at 100. Check refs, the MIT Press book doesn't exist and neither does its author. Drawn Some (talk) 17:36, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable in any event. ChildofMidnight (talk) 20:47, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Probably a real person, just not a notable one for purposes of an encyclopedia. Nothing but passing references in the sources we can all verify, and the text of the article itself doesn't assert notability, rather merely existence. OfficeGirl (talk) 19:42, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
