[edit] Parys Sylver

This looks suss to me. 53 Google hits (excluding duplicates), most of which appear to be someone's attempts to spam this guy's name onto various free 'press release' and celebrity sites. No mention of this person on the IMDB entry for Freedom Writers either [1]. This article was also previously deleted as a vanity page (see Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Parys_Sylver).

• Delete per nom. --Kurt Shaped Box 23:40, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

• Keep -- Firegirl223 23:42, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Incorrect with google i get over 38,000. His image is on the IMDB, the ONLY image and it is from the movie. Like all movie that are filming it is subject to change.

Only 52 unique Google hits [2]. There is also nothing to confirm that the person pictured on IMDB is 'Parys Sylver'. I also recall this being one of the swarm of vanity/hoax articles created previously during the CrystalCherry fiasco, which is something to bear in mind. --Kurt Shaped Box 00:05, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

The Who? I did my research with that article and apparently it was indeed a hoax or at very least a vanity page. And as far as that being confrimed to be him, all it takes is to veiw his site and you can see, plain and easy that it is the same person.Firegirl223 00:14, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

• • Comment: "per nom" means that you agree with the nominator. Since the nominator voted to delete, you can not "keep per nom". Please choose a different reason. Stifle 11:47, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as unremarkable. Parys Sylver gets 38k Google hits.[3] But "Parys Sylver" gets only 407.[4] -- Krash (Talk) 00:00, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

That's true, i guess i googled it wrong. I guess this person isn't unremarkable. But some articles get less than that, as far as google hits go, though they still exist. I assume i am a but biased since i recently read The Color Of Silence and fell in love with it. Maybe he isn't yet notable enough. Firegirl223 00:02, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete per {{db-repost}}, tagged. Stifle 11:47, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • It's quite different, so I've removed the speedy tag. Here's the original text:

    Parys Sylver was born Maurice Smith in the summer of July in 1987. A young prodigy who wrote his books before he was out of high school. One of his most noted books was High School Whore, which is a tale of a girl named Summer who is running for prom queen. Another, more erotic and daring books was the Blood Angel, in which Parys tells the story of Aryk Isaac Killen, a pre-Civil War vampire. Both books have gained minor success on Lulu.com. But another book which is getting a lot of attention is his poetry collection called Words Of Beauty. Parys is also known for writing music.

  • However, seems like a hoax, so delete. Chick Bowen 04:01, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
