[edit] ARTHUR LEOPOLD BUSCH

ARTHUR LEOPOLD BUSCH (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

It's a hoax; only one googlehit, and they're a school student. Whoops; apparently I made a bad typo in my search. Neutral now. Veinor (talk to me) 20:20, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

  • speedy delete - per nom. Also WP:V: See Arthur Leopold Busch under google.com isn't a valid reference! Cate | Talk 16:59, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete - As nom, and above. Google is not a reference.--AgentCDE 22:26, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Move to Arthur Leopold Busch - I'm changing my vote due to the information brought to light below - thanks, folks.--AgentCDE 19:33, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. I'm not sure what "one googlehit" the nominator is referring to; the only hit I get (apart from this AfD page) for the exact name of this article points me to this webpage, which is a detailed biography of the subject in question. Granted, a geocities posting may not be the most reliable source in the world, but that page does cite some sources of its own that perhaps deserve research, and which could be used to flesh out Wikipedia's article. I don't think this qualifies as an obvious hoax. Carolfrog 05:56, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. This article was nominated for deletion a mere 15 hours after its initial creation. Carolfrog 06:02, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. Definitely not a hoax. See this official US Navy page on nautical engineering pioneers. I've added it to this article as a source. Carolfrog 06:27, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep as a naval ship construction pioneer, important in the development of submarines. Alternatively, weak merge into John Holland's article. But, uh.. retitle the page. :) --Strangerer (Talk | Contribs) 11:20, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. IMHO nobody should vote keep, but ev. move to the tight case name spelling. Cate | Talk 12:34, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • You are both SO right. :) Move to Arthur Leopold Busch.  :) —Carolfrog 23:06, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Rename then keep. And I renamed it, all set. - Denny 00:01, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Cleaned up to this sourced version. Should be fine to keep now and continue on... - Denny 00:11, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
