[edit] Leann Collins

Leann Collins (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

A biographical article which has all the tell-tale signs of an autobiographical puff piece; before it was substantially cleaned up by Spark.blue (talk · contribs), it read like something you'd read on the back cover of a book. The sources do not speak to the subject's notability and all, and she gets little more than 600 Ghits. I don't think this photographer is as notable as the article makes her seem. I strongly suspect the primary author, (Dsefton88 (talk · contribs), is Collins herself. JuJube (talk) 09:38, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete fails WP:N and WP:COI. 39 unique Ghits, the leading one being her own website and the second being wikipedia. Then follow a bunch of directory networking site listings. No articles to speak of, and the majority of references appear to be WP:SPS. If supplying a list of court filings for copyright infringement is synonymous with notability, then something must be wrong. The article was authored by David Sefton, the subject's husband.

  • Delete for failing WP:N, as above. Seems to be a photographer who sues a lot... not sure of notability beyond that. Also has shades of WP:COI and WP:NPOV. OBM | blah blah blah 12:26, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Visual arts-related deletions. – David Eppstein (talk) 15:00, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom & others. Her best chance to show notability would be the only para which is unreferenced. Johnbod (talk) 15:08, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
