[edit] Howard deVore
It's a copy-and-paste from http://stilyagi.org/cons/1999/howard.html, but there's no copyright notice on the site, so I didn't tag it as a speedy candidate. As written, it's not fit for inclusion, but if he's written a guide to science fiction awards, he might be notable enough. Abstain. --howcheng [ talk • contribs • web ] 22:20, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy delete - as far as I know, a missing copyright notice does not mean that the information can be copied. So then it's a speedy, I'll tag it as such. --JoanneB 23:24, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
- This may be a copyvio, but the source is not a "commercial content provider" and so this is not a speedy candidate. I have removed the speedy tag. I belive that this person has been at elast soemwhat notable in SF circles for many years, and if rewritten to avoid copyright problems, or if the source grants a GFDL release, this would be fine. Deal with through normal WP:CP procedure, Keep if copyright issues addressed. DES (talk) 23:43, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as copyvio which does not indicate the notability. I would be open to argument if there was a non-copyvio article or even a stub here. Capitalistroadster 00:23, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
