[edit] Rachel bisdee

Rachel bisdee (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable actress, with no claims for notability under the criteria. Google search brings up zero news results, general Google search shows only about 450 results, most of which are either MySpace type pages, forums, or the like. No verifiable sources given that demonstrate the notability, just a media/talent manager site listing. CSD tag was removed by creator of page, without using the hangon, and no discussion on the talk page. Perhaps someone here can find proof of notability, but I'm unable to do so.

  • Delete - No reliable and independent secondary sources can be found to proof notability. --Oxymoron83 09:40, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - Only seems to have a few commercials and the occasional TV appearance in her portfolio. Apart from that there's no apparent claim to notoriety that would justify the page.Alberon 10:56, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment - This is a VERY pre-emptive nomination for an article that is only 24 hours old! TaintedZebra 11:14, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
I disagree. Considering the article qualifies to be speedily deleted, and the CSD tag was removed with no attempt to contest the deletion, or to improve the issues, bringing it to AFD is better than slapping another CSD tag on it. Additionally, the responsibility of proving notability is on the author to do so at the creation of an article. This is one purpose of sandboxes, userspace, etc, to allow people to formulate things prior to making them live, to ensure they are appropriate for an encyclopedia, and won't be deleted.

Actually, if there was no explanation for the removal of the prod you can put it back again as procedure wasn't followed. TaintedZebra 19:48, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
It wasn't a prod, it was a CSD tag, and it was invalidly removed by the author of the article, who didn't use the {{hangon}} template as instructed. But rather than engage in an edit war over the tag, I chose to take a more peaceful route, bringing it to AFD. Ariel♥Gold 21:09, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete Nothing says new articles can't be afd'd or speedy deleted. There is nothing at all showing this person is notable at all. — Rlevse • Talk • 18:03, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
