William Self (archaeologist)

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

Not to be confused with other famous William Self's (novelist, actor etc), this William Self hasn't done anything notable outside of running a company. Does not appear to have published anything as an archaeologist, nor released anything as a musician. Many of the claims, such as being taught by Slim Edwards appears to be independently unverifiable Article was previous speedy deletion candidate but declined. Another editor had previously tagged the article for COI/self-promotion re:, JamesBurns (talk) 07:01, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Cannot find evidence for claims as a musician and doesn't appear notable as an archaeologist. Also note that the 3 users who have mainly worked on this article have no contributions to other articles. Quantpole (talk) 11:36, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
