[edit] Mary Christina Brown
Non-notable actress. The article was written by Marychristina8 which shows a clear conflict of interest. Her credits per her IMDB entry show that she has played "Dancer", "Hot Model", "Cheerleader", etc. IrishGuy talk 20:57, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

- Comment: Very interesting. I've been observing this Wikipedia for some time now, and I find it fascinating the level of open hostility shown to people like the one being discussed here. I am what you might call a professional in the film business, and there's no question that this girl fails all measures of notability, according to Wikipedia. However, the arrogance and outright glee with with these kinds of deletions are pursued is something I find very disturbing. My own profile on this system will never see deletion, so I will never have to weather the nasty, condescending commentary I see routinely directed toward non-notable artists, i.e., people who are swimming against all odds to achieve their goals. I'm told that a large majority of Wikipedia is composed of computer programmers and/or academics who are generally white middle-class men. You gentlemen could do with a course on diplomacy, ambassadorship, and humility. The way things read now, regardless of your counter-claims, most of you delight in seeing others fail Wikipedia. Perhaps you feel powerful as result. I am here to tell you that you are anything but powerful sitting behind a computer and using harsh terminology against people you've never met. In fact, cheers to the "non-notables" who struggle out in the real world: May all of you Wikipedians enjoy maintaining their profiles once they achieve their dreams, because for most of you it's as close as you'll ever come to anything resembling "accomplishment". Wikipedia, if you wish to be perceived as something other than a cult/haven for the disenfranchised and angry nerd, please work (hard) on issues of diplomacy and ambassadorship. Oh, did I already say that? ICanSeeTheWarnerBrosTowerFromHere 07:15, 26 August 2007 (UTC) — ICanSeeTheWarnerBrosTowerFromHere (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
