[edit] Carmel Schrire

Non-notable professor. She has written one book with an Amazon rank of >1,000,000, and the article reads like a CV. Delete. RSpeer 01:18, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)

• Oh, and to make the article even more self-serving, the link to her book is an Amazon referral link. RSpeer 01:21, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Vanity, self-promotion. Keep per RJHall and TenOfAllTrade's excellent edits. Android79 16:00, Mar 14, 2005 (UTC)
  • Err, this article keeps changing! I'm guessing someone will try to salvage it again. No vote until it's in a more stable state. Android79 17:29, Mar 14, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, self-promotion, or somebody else promoting on behalf of her, along w/ book ad. -Deadcorpse 05:26, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - professor with multiple non-vanity published books - David Gerard 13:26, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep — notable. I linked in her bio. — RJH 17:50, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Weak Keep. Seems to pass the average professor test, though the book ad-ish flavour needs work. I've removed the Amazon.com link from the book title, and collected her works into a separate Publications section in the article. --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 00:34, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Damn copyvio. Delete. I've moved the Publications section of the article to the temp space. If someone writes a substantial non-copyvio article at Carmel_Schrire/Temp, that can be kept. --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 17:25, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, and if so - wikify - Eixo 02:06, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, needs work. --Boothy443 | comhrÚ 07:40, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Copyvio. Gamaliel 17:10, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• A perfectly valid topic if someone writes a non-copyvio article. -- Jmabel | Talk 05:43, Mar 16, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, cleanup and expand. Megan1967 09:41, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• keep please Yuckfoo 21:00, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
