[edit] Zelbereth

Prod removed without comment. Appears to be some sort of amateur fiction. Character, "fictional universe" and author all fail google search. Unpublished fiction is not notable. Fan-1967 02:42, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy Delete per nom. Looks like A7 candidate to me. My Alt Account 02:46, 11 September 2006 (UTC) (see below)

• Don't believe A7 can be applied to fictional characters. Fan-1967 02:49, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete. Google results show nothing. It looks like WP:HOAX to me. --Supermath 02:54, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete per nomination. No reasonable claim to notability. --S0uj1r0 07:24, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
• Comment This article was AfD'd 10 minutes after creation. Perhaps we should give the author a chance to improve it before speedying. That being said, Delete it if substantial edits aren't made to it by the end of this AfD. VegaDark 09:20, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete As non notable, and failing WP:FICT. As said above, A7 does not apply here, as A7 is for real people, not fictional characters. Thε Halo ^Θ 11:24, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

*Keep Article was prod'd 4 minutes after creation. 4 minutes. What, is Wikipedia so short of server space that it needs the 500 bytes or so this article takes up? Give the guy a chance to do his work. Has anyone actually attempted to improve the article? --Pussy Galore 12:15, 11 September 2006 (UTC) indef banned for trolling

• • Thanks for asking! Actually, yes, and nobody can even tell what the article is about, really, so we can't improve it. I look forward to hearing a report of what you find, since your Keep vote indicates your research found that the article's topic warrants an encyclopedic article.

  • Comment Four minutes was long enough to determine there is no published fantasy author by that name, and that both the character and fictional universe are unknown. The author had, and still has, the opportunity to provide sources. None have shown up. If you can find some, let us know. Fan-1967 13:53, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
    • Look, let's just change our votes to Keep right now. Because I don't think Pussy Galore would have voted Keep for absolutely no reason at all. I think he has some excellent reason to keep the article, but he just didn't have a chance to tell us. My Alt Account 18:30, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
      • I've already explained explained my reasons. Are you familiar with wikipedia policy? Do you know that I can simply post 'keep and not be required to make any comment? --Pussy Galore 01:40, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
        • AfD is a debate not a vote. Making a "vote" without reasoning is tantamount to saying nothing as closing admin will ignore it. You might want to familiarize yourself with current wikipedia policy, as votes went out of style awhile ago.--Crossmr 03:22, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above; also, article created by User:Zelbereth who has not contributed to any other WP topics. NawlinWiki 17:42, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Who? Where? By whom? — pd_THOR ^{| =/\= | 01:39, 12 September 2006 (UTC)}
• Delete as severly nn. --Mmx1 01:39, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Non-notable, wikipedia isn't a place to further your exposure.--Crossmr 03:23, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete; unverifiable; probably hoax or nonsense. --MCB 03:49, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - changing my vote. Pussy Galore's arguments above are very sensible, plus I think it's unfair the way he always ends up voting on his own. My Alt Account 09:32, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
