[edit] Peter Hillary
Puffed-up biography, sounds moderately impressive but no verification is given; notable verification was not found by my searches. Part of a series of spam articles that included Everest Rescue Trust, The Sagarmatha Limb Centre, The Sagarmatha Sherpa Shed, and Alpine Wasp. This one sort-of asserts notability so I didn't go for speedy delete. Other editors are of course welcome to tag it with {{db-a7}} if they feel that's warranted. — coelacan talk — 20:42, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Keep. You're joking, right? Maybe not quite as notable as his father, but still probably one of the world's top ten mountaineers. I wonder about your searches for notable verification; the first page of ghits for "Peter Hillary"+mountaineer" turns up National Geographic. if you'd prefer "Peter Hillary"+Antarctic, you get ABC news, and "Peter Hillary"+Everest gets you NPR. Take your pick. Grutness...wha? 00:52, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

- Strong keep per Grutness. Could do with some sources, tidying up, and perhaps a little toning down in places, but there's no way it should be deleted. -- Avenue 01:04, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
