[edit] Bob Horton

Bob Horton (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Non notable person. Main notability claim in the article appears to be that he is a Parkinson's sufferer, and founder of the "Bob Horton Trust". The trust gets no google hits at all, apart from this page. Searching for "Bob Horton" journalist also gets no relevant results. Delete as lacking verifiability.

• Delete Fails general WP:N guidelines as well as Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Politicians, if that is what the assertion of notability is, according to the author. SWik78 (talk • contribs) 13:53, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - this article has one link to it... and it comes from Prisoner Visitation and Support, an article for an organization co-founded by a different Bob Horton. Otherwise, this article is orphaned and dead end. It makes no significant attempt to demonstrate notability and has no cited references for WP:V or WP:BIO. As a member of a national medium, it is possible that Mr. Horton is indeed noteworthy of a Wikipedia article, but much more needs to be shown for it to be kept.
