Draft:Tim Curnow


Declined draft biography of a living person that has been noted by multiple reviewers to be very non-neutral and written to praise its subject rather than describing him neutrally. The creator, who has a conflict of interest, has tweaked the draft since the last submission and decline to prevent G13, so that the draft needs MFD instead.

The subject is likely notable, but notability isn't asufficienthe only reason to accept and lack of notability isn't the only reason to delete. This draft will not become a satisfactory article if only the author works on it. If a neutral editor rewrites this draft within seven days, it can be kept.

 * Keep. Probably notable, probably could be improved in mainspace. Some serious issues are not properly treated by deletion. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:15, 24 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment It's a mess right now as none of the citations are connected properly and it's not clear which of the citations give Tim Curnow significant coverage. There are books that mention that he did take over at Curtis Brown or at other companies, but they seem to be passing mentions like Wrestling with the Angel which would confirm that he edited for Janet Frame.

 * Comment - If a neutral editor is ready to improve this draft in six days, it can be kept. I see no reason to think that this draft is even a useful starting place for a neutral draft; there would have to be too much pruning to get rid of the peacock language.
