Temple Hayes

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Biography of a Religious Science minister. Except for a claim to softball fame which is almost certainly false (see below), there is no actual claim to notability in the article, which has existed for 15 years without ever being adequately sourced, and for many years it has also been severely promotional.

Which National Softball Hall of Fame was she elected to? Not the one found here anyway – here is a list of all female inductees in the various categories. A question about this at Talk:Temple Hayes in 2008 resulted in a change of wording to "nominated" rather than "elected", but in 2015, this promotion laden edit again said she was elected. Since there's no source to be found to confirm it, it can't be included in an article anyway, so there really isn't any notability here. bonadea contributions talk 20:36, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment. Here is one piece of independent coverage: .4meter4 (talk) 22:55, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Possibly independent, but it's a local publication (presenting itself as "a free weekly publication, website, content marketing and event company"), and the article is not primarily about her – it's about the organisation she was working for. --bonadea contributions talk 17:32, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete motivational speaker, I find sources confirming where she's spoken, rest is trivial coverage. Army reservist isn't notable, the religious stuff doesn't seem notable either. Oaktree b (talk) 14:26, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete I can't find anything other than stuff that looks like promotional guff. JMWt (talk) 14:33, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
