[edit] Anders Fogleman

Anders Fogleman (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Appears to be autobiographical. Notability not established. Sources not provided. "Anders Fogleman" returns < 20 ghits. Prod removed (kind of) by original author. --OnoremDil 15:41, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete fails notability by a long shot, and WP:COI as well. Sources from Facebook and YouTube and a claim that "This person is notable to many college-aged people" don't help. Hut 8.5 16:20, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Some notabilities are proven through a source. If you would like a list of people who have watched videos and know him, I'm sure you could ask around. But there is no document saying he is officially notable. Afoglema (talk · contribs) - Comment moved here from article by --OnoremDil 16:44, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment Mere existence is not the same thing as notability. There are many people who have seen my neighbour's videos, but that doesn't mean a thing. Wikipedia policy requires attribution to verifiable, reliable, independent, non-trivial sources. Most people (including you and I) are trivial sources. A reviewer for the New York Times or the Globe and Mail would be non-trivial. --Charlene 17:00, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Without any external sources, this is just another YouTube video uploader. — Scientizzle 16:45, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete One out of thousands of YouTube video uploaders. No attribution to non-trivial, independent, reliable sources. --Charlene 17:00, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Comment would you please list a few examples of possible sources?

Anything that satisfies WP:RS will do. Hut 8.5 18:37, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
