[edit] Davey Morgan

Vanity page. The author is Davey Morgan. I'm unsure whether this organization is notable, but Davey sure isn't. Deco 05:28, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

• The organization is very notable, if you would check the below links, you will find other references to the Euphemian Literary Society.

Links:

• Erskine.edu - Euphemian Literary Society
• Abbeville Historic Sites

- Davey Morgan

• Delete. The organization might be noteable (I haven't checked), but Davey Morgan is not. Open vanity and non-noteable. HackJandy 05:53, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

If you will go here: Euphemian Members Page you will find that Davey Morgan is noteable.

• Dave, unfortunately I fail to see how your entry is remotely encylopedic. To me, it just looks like a place card. Please check WP:BIO. After doing more research I am tempted to nominate Euphemian Literary Society as well for non-noteable (I notice there is a copyvio there even). HackJandy 06:30, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

I haven't read the WPBIO thing yet, but the Euphemian Literary Society is very noteable. It is one of the most profound liteterary societies in the US in which Robert E. Lee was himself an honorary member! You can search www.google.com yourself and find it listed many times and you can search erskine.edu and find it. The society has had a big impact on history.

• Comment Robert E Lee was a member you say? Google differs with your opinion. Even searching the Alumni database does not provide said information. If anything this should be merged into Erskine_College. However, the topic at hand is whether or not the Davey Morgan entry should be deleted. Wikipedia is *not* your personal CV.

• Comment ... Oops it looks like someone already nuked it anyway. HackJandy 07:02, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

• It seems someone went ahead and speedy-deleted it. I don't contest that the ELS might be notable, and there is a possibility that Davey wrote the content of that website being the ELS historian. But Davey himself is clearly not notable if his only claim to fame is an honorary, temporary position in a student organization. Deco 06:55, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Thank you very much, but I am not a honorary temporary position in an organization, but the official webmaster for the organization and the historian. I was appointed the position and had to qualify to become a member, in which I will always be the member, because I am an Erskine College faculty.

• Comment - its silly that this was speedy deleted without consensus. Especially since the Vfd discussion is still able to be edited. Whoever the admin was that speedied it would do well to remember to follow correct policies next time. Can someone please fix this up? Zordrac 19:45, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
