[edit] Scot Haney
A US local weather presenter. Was tagged for A7 speedy, but there's a hint of notability in the article so I switched it to PROD. Author removed prod without comment - and the tags asking for a {{wikify}} and a {{catNeeded}}. No extra sources or assertions of notability were supplied, so article now comes here as a matter of course.➨ ЯEDVERS 18:38, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, hard-pressed to see any notability here. Poorly written, awful spelling, and a hint of POV ("best meteorologist"?) HumbleGod 19:09, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, vanity. —Quarl (talk) 2006-07-04 23:59Z
- Speedy Delete - I saw no hint of notability - no awards, nothing. Also note that the Original editor has posted the entire news crew for this station. The rest of the crew were speedy deleted. Rklawton 00:22, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- Comment There is a whole category devoted to weather presenters on Wikipedia [1]. Cursory examination reveals that many of the articles under it are no more notable than this guy. Many articles start out in pretty bad shape and go on to be great articles so I don't think that the bad spelling and writing should be an issue - we can fix that. Its a bit of a concern that the author has been removing the maintainance tags, but they appear to be a newbie - maybe they don't really understand how it works yet? We should probably cut them some slack Mammal4 14:20, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
