[edit] Bunce

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

WP:ISNOT a genealogical directory. There is nothing notable about this name, and most of the article content is erroneous - unsourced because unsourceable from reputable sources, presumably. This was originally PRODded but User:Bunceboy removed the tag in less than 12 hours without explanation, so to avoid a long wrangle I have brought it here instead. HeartofaDog 13:54, 30 January 2007 (UTC) Since the article is now effectively a brand-new disambig page minus all the flannel, I'll withdraw the nomination (but will be keeping a close eye on it for seep-back).HeartofaDog 18:00, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. Concur on WP:ISNOT. Lacking verifiable content, especially for some questionable claims made. Arakunem 17:38, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Keep' Retract delete comments now that the article has been cleaned up and is appropriate disambiguation. Arakunem 17:07, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Note that the article used to redirect to List of hobbit families. Uncle G 18:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
  • I've added a list of prominent people called Bunce to the article. As such, I feel it can be kept, since it makes this no different to many other "extended disambiguation" pages dealing with surnames. Grutness...wha? 01:41, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Right. I've now taken out everything that is not sourced and needs to be - which is the whole article except for your list of sportspeople plus the two other misc refs that have appeared since this nomination. This leaves it as a completely new straightforward disambig page - no problems with that (until the next visit from the very busy Crap Genealogy Fairy). HeartofaDog 14:19, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep in its current cleaned up form (name dab page). --Fang Aili talk 16:31, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
