Thor Halland

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

Non-notable figure who fails WP:BIO. There is a sliver of WP:V via a BBC press release about an appearance on university challenge but that's it. All of the other claims either appear to be a) untrue (film appearances); b) unverifiable from reliable sources or c) trivial mentions of that sort that we do not and cannot construct an article from and were removed - what you see is what we are left with. --Prisongangleader (talk) 13:46, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete-Yeah, look, I'm not sure what more I can say than staggeringly non-notable. It might be true, it might be verifiable, but merely being a winning contestant on a game show doesn't come anywhere near what I'd consider notable enough for inclusion in an encyclopedia.

 * Delete per Reyk. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:39, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete also per Reyk, doesn't pass any notability standards I see.  Black  ngold29   05:01, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Appearing on University Challenge only makes you notable for having parents who own two Ferraris, a Porsche and a secret BDSM chamber. Black-Velvet  05:54, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, nn. --Soman (talk) 13:22, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete BLP1E, Notability guidelines for biographies. Also the cited source is a press release.  For the closing admin, please take into account the consensus about the article before considering implementing the guidance for banned users. Protonk (talk) 03:14, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per others. Doctorfluffy (robe and wizard hat) 03:49, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Simply appearing on a published list of people does not impart notability; even I am more notable than that.  --Falcon Darkstar Kirtaran (talk) 07:17, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
