I wanted to give this new article a chance, but there's just no way I think this is ever going to merit inclusion per our notability guidelines at WP:BIO. Seems like self promotion to me... └ UkPaolo/talk┐ 23:14, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm just making this page as a temporary page for my girlfriend, definitely not self promotion or anything of the sort. I also had no intention of maintaining or keeping it, and would most likely have deleted all the information by tonight. Please just leave it up for the next day, it's just to give her a laugh while she's stressed. I figured a gag page isn't going to set a whole people off with wrong information if she is unknown anyway. Let me know what your decision is! Thank you. └ Crash25/talk┐

  • One wishes to be kind, but we're an encyclopedia, not candy-stripers. Speedy delete per A7. --Dhartung | Talk 23:31, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
  • This does not meet the requirements of A7 - there is an assertion of notability. Crash25 - if you will come back within about 8 hours, and state that you want the article deleted, we'll delete it then. Otherwise, we'll drag out this process and say lots of unflattering things about Miss Egan before we delete the article. Just for the record, my !vote is delete for lack of references. Argyriou (talk) 23:54, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Understandable, but I'm sure you can allow me to keep it up for just the next couple of hours. Please explain "speedy delete per A7".Crash25 23:39, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

→ After reviewing the articles for deletion section I understand the speedy/proposed delete. I really think you guys are being a bit too harsh on someone using an unknown person's name for a day to cheer someone up. C'mon! What do you guys want to believe me that I'll delete it by midnight my time? (central-North America)Crash25 23:49, 30 January 2007 (UTC) (edit conflict, but I'm too lazy to rewrite.)

See Criteria for Speedy Deletion. A7 says an article may be deleted if the article has no assertion of notability. Speedy deletion means that an article is so unequivocally unqualified to remain that any administrator can delete it without discussion. Argyriou (talk) 23:54, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

I am completely find with you guys deleting this page in 8 hours. If I have to come back to this forum to request it's deletion I will do so.Crash25 00:01, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Deletion Alright, you can delete the page now. She's seen it and enjoyed it. Before you go and use your "professional encyclopedia" to say lots of unflattering things about her (very professional, Argyriou, quite professional indeed) the page can be removed. Thank you so much for your hospitality.Crash25 00:13, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete per author's request. This sort of tomfoolery really ought to be criteria for speedy deletion. Maxamegalon2000 06:23, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Romantically quicky delete per author's request. but please don't do it next time, per WP:SOAP ;-) Ohconfucius 07:54, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
