[edit] John Tennyson

This is about what seems as a non-notable author. I only found a few pages with this person mentioned on Google. Unless it is notable it should be deleted and possibly added to List of novelists from the United States. --Mason 00:15, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete and list on List of novelists from the United States. Royboycrashfan 00:23, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Comment: I don't know anything about Mr. Tennyson. However, where is the logic in deleting this and then adding Mr. Tennyson to List of novelists from the United States? That list clearly states that: "Novelists on this list should be notable in some way, and ideally have a Wikipedia article". If Mr. Tennyson has written published novels, then he probably should have an article and this stub should be expanded. If he hasn't, then this should be deleted and his name should not be added to any lists at wikipedia. -- JJay 00:51, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Amazon apparently has nothing by him (although there's an musical album by a different John Tennyson), while the references on Google appear to be about a musician.Gjc8 01:30, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per the above evidence. Don't just toss him into a list: if a topic isn't verifiable enough for an article, it's not verifiable enough for a list either. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 01:46, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Gjc8's evidence, fails WP:BIO, nothing notable. --Terence Ong 02:01, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per NN bio and nom. Funnybunny 02:28, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete unless anyone can provide any substance to the article. If deleted, then no reason to list. Tyrenius 02:51, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete No assertion of notability. The article just says he's a "writer" - a writer of what? --Hyperbole 04:16, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per above. SorryGuy 07:11, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per above. Sheehan (Talk) 07:56, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. The content has just one sentence.--Jusjih 12:23, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per above, and the first edit said "Under construction". color probe^{·Talk·Contribs·@} _RCP 14:54, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per AL and nom. RGTraynor 15:04, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I bet that some guy named John Tennyson who thinks he's a writer made the page.--CountCrazy007 16:43, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
• I have to go wirh Delete as well. Nothing plausible in the Library of Congress catalog (all the choices are too old), and no suggestive Googles for ("John Tennyson" writer Vancouver). -Colin Kimbrell 19:58, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
