[edit] Dress Up Shows

Created by User:Bwhittington, who also created a vanity page about himself that's been speedied (now protected against re-creation). I think that this person probably doesn't realize that they're falling afoul of Wikipedia's policies on vanity and advertising, which is unfortunate. But regardless, this particular article is basically a blurb about his business putting on childrens' shows in Houston. Delete. · Katefan0(scribble)/poll 17:24, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Just delete the stupid thing. It hardly matters. I personally don't see the bias of the article and would find it valuable for all theater and art organizations to have similar listings. But delete the thing and be done with it, sparing us further high-horse histrionics from the likes of Katefan0. Delete. User:Bwhittington
I've been quite nice, I think. Unlike things like this [1]. But the point isn't that the article is biased. It's that your company isn't notable enough, in my opinion, for an article at an encyclopedia, making it basically advertising, which isn't appropriate here. That's all. Of course, others may disagree -- that's the great thing about the Wikipedia community. At any rate, I meant no offense, as I took pains to convey on your userpage. · Katefan0(scribble)/poll 18:00, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, non-notable per WP:CORP. Also, while WP:DICK on the part of the author is not a reason for deletion, it certainly doesn't help any case to keep. --Kinu t/c 21:31, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
