[edit] Katarina Walker
This is an autobiography by Iezegrim (talk · contribs). The only claim to notability was the assertion that she was "recognized as the foremost authority on the American casino game Spanish 21, and its Australian analogue, Pontoon." The referenced article, however, only thanks Walker for correcting some minor strategy errors, and doesn't make any claim that even comes close to calling here "the foremost authority" on the subject. When that unreferenced, unverifiable claim is taken out of the equation, nothing remains that might make her meet WP:BIO. AecisBrievenbus 13:39, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete non-notable, apparent vanity, primarily a link to a self-published book on lulu.com. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:56, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- A self-published book that has appeared the day before yesterday, btw. AecisBrievenbus 13:58, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete unless reliable secondary sources can be introduced to verify the notability of the subject. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:21, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. NN and autobiographical. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vaguely (talk • contribs) 18:40, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete because (a) this is possibly not a real name but the nom de guerre of a casino games player and student, (b) the subject of the entry has not yet contributed anything in written form which was worthwhile or well known about gambling, and (c) the information is not supported --and cannot be supported, most probably-- by independent sources. -The Gnome (talk) 12:35, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
- Comment. OR or vanity entries promoting this article have been added to Pontoon_(game) and Spanish_21. It would seem sensible to revert those, especially if this is afded. 2005 (talk) 21:12, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
