Walter Scott Story

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Biography of a pulp fiction and children’s writer unsourced since 2003. A search is hard because it throws up only false positives for me and I’m not even finding unreliable sources. The article looks like it was based on an obituary but maybe others will be able to find sources demonstrating notability. Mccapra (talk) 11:34, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep: Well, I looked at the dates in that article, went "If there's anything here, it's not on Google", opened up newspapers.com, and found there was indeed a there there. I'm happy to say I've sourced something unsourced since 2003. His work is fairly extensively reviewed, enough for WP:NAUTHOR, and his death was front-page news.
