William Spaniel

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This is a vanity article, written at the subject's request by his fans, and based almost entirely on his column, written for a minor fansite (which he runs). He's never been the subject of significant commentary written by anyone other than himself; there are two links mentioning him in the external links, but both of those are responses to his critical articles, by the subjects of those criticism. There's no sources we can use to write an article about him, save for his own all-but-self-published column. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 05:26, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete as per above. Non-notable. --Dysepsion 07:26, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete but transwiki, since some good faith work was done here. Shrug.  Sources are actually not the problem here due to him being an Internet writer, but Mr. Spaniel is quite simply not notable enough. SnowFire 12:20, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
