[edit] D'Andre Devon Lampkin

Disputed prod and suggestion to userfy declined. Non-notable autobiography. -- RHaworth 10:12, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete A7. The only news coverage on the dude is in a local Long Beach paper on being among six high school grads awarded a $1000 scholarship. Pan Dan 11:00, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - sorry, but he's just not notable. BTLizard 11:03, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete all very worthy, just not notable enough. --RMHED 18:33, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Do you guys have any suggestions on how this can be saved? Check out these other notable mentions: ACLU Legal Brief: Williams v. State of California, http://www.decentschools.org/courtdocs/01FirstAmendedComplaint.pdf, Statement of Mark D. Rosenbaum Legal Director, ACLU of Southern California August 13, 2004, Quality Counts 2003: The Great Divide, Los Angeles USD Student Depositions, Williams Case - Correspondence (CA Dept of Education, and had it not been for students like D'Andre Lampkin, this would have never happened: Notice of Settlement Memorandum. And yes, all of these sources recieved media coverage, including appearances of the governor. Zodiac01 11:46, 15 September 2006
• Delete, "mentions" are not sufficient. The above sources would not qualify as "non-trivial" coverage per WP:V. It can be saved by being userfied. Recury 19:33, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
• Comments:
  • I don't understand, please clarify "userfied" and "non-trivial" Zodiac01 15:21, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
  • I just read the WP:V and I think I understand now. In one of those above links, D'Andre is lauded for his efforts by the ACLU. I'm sure the ACLU is a verfiable source. Please help me fix this if there's anyway it can be fixed. Zodiac01 15:21, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
  • RHaworth, I just found your comment stating "Don't tell me to Google!" I'm obviously new to the wikipedia experience and no offense was intended. I just simply referenced where the information could be found. Zodiac01 15:21, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

No need to apologise, man - just do what I asked for - provide a link to a Google search. "Non-trivial" means something more than an article that contains your name - we are not questioning your existence! "Userfy" means move the article to user:Zodiac01 - I have agreed to stop userfying otherwise I would have userfied this one on sight. -- RHaworth 12:44, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

• • Here ya go, D'Andre Lampkin, D'Andre Devon Lampkin, Explorer D'Andre Lampkin. And more important, I also found the link to an association started in 2003, LACLEEA Zodiac01 15:21, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Doesn't meet notability guidelines yet...eventually, he may. But not on this day. —ExplorerCDT 22:02, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
