[edit] Chris Floyd - Empire Burlesque

Appears to be a vanity page, or at least one cut and pasted from his press clippings by a fan. tregoweth 18:16, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

• Comment. i'm tagging for cleanup, and will see if i can do so. will vote after. Nateji77 18:47, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
• Move to Chris Floyd per Caribmon's nom here. weekly columnist for a newspaper with a reported circulation of 35,000. published a book, made Project Censored's list, and writes for many household-name publications. the title, like the method employed for internal links, is simply written wrong. still needs Cleanup, IMO.

• Comment. Caribmon - This was my first attempt at a wiki entry. I am still learning so... is there anything I could do to clean it up? I realized I did all the links archaically when I finished the page last night... please advise. Thanks.

• Comment.caribmon Actually - I am his webmaster at chris-floyd.com. This is not a vanity page - I am just not that familiar with the Wikipedia formatting and am trying to work this into a palatable entry. 22:56, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

it could still be construed as promotion in less than good faith. personally i think if a topic is notable, it's notable, regardless of who creates the article on it. it could be claimed as "tribute" i guess; we often get pages by students written about their non-notable high school teachers/university professors. there was a band vanity article written recently by a member's little brother that led to some confusion, as the member was denying having written it but of course had the same IP address.

• Comment Are you sure the links are up to date, really? Kaosnoway 14:15, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• I suppose redirect to the Chris Floyd page. This was never a deletion. Charles Matthews 07:55, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
