[edit] Galinda Hobsquatch

Non notable bio. No importance asserted, nor any references provided. No google hits. I put a speedy del tag on it but was promptly removed by creator. soUmyaSch 16:43, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete as {{db-bio}} The JPS 17:17, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm still in the process of making it... Sorry, school is making it slow.

• Speedy Delete as NN bio, no assertion of notability, possible attack page, possible hoax. RGTraynor 18:36, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
• Give it a day I went through the article and made a handfull of changes. We could probably expect it to be completed shortly... icolson 13:35, 19 April 2006 (CST)

• Comment: And it's still probably spurious. Still with zero G-hits. User's first contribution, by the bye. RGTraynor 19:53, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete. I have nominated this for db-bio. The article states that she is one of America's least well-known poets and doesn't establish notability thereafter. Capitalistroadster 21:53, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
• I'll keep this AfD on my watchlist. Until then, delete. Author seems to be confused as to meaning of notability. Fagstein 06:37, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. For some reson Tawker removed the AfD notice and replaced it with a prod, I have replaced the AfD notice.--blue520 07:32, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nominator, fails WP:BIO guidelines. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 07:42, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete unverifiable, if verified non-notable. Just zis Guy you know? 11:14, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:V and WP:BIO.--Isotope23 20:42, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep: Until it can be proven that this bio is non-notable. Google hits is not a good method in finding this out. --MateoP 19:53, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

• Comment: You can't prove a negative. That aside, it is not our responsibility to demonstrate that no one has ever heard of this person (although no one ever has), it is the responsibility of the article's creators to give verifiable evidence of her notability.
