[edit] Simeon Kwan

Claims to have the NBA in his sights... but he is not there yet. A google search on "Simeon Kwan" and basketball produces exactly three hits. NN vanity—delete. JeremyA (talk) 05:28, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

You guys just don't know that much about international superstars overseas. He is a promising young prospect with loads of potential. I vote to have this entry NOT DELETED.

• Delete. No claim to notability yet, and the username suggests probable vanity. Agentsoo 10:32, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete notability not established. JamesBurns 10:32, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete with extreme prejudice. Recreate this when he becomes a star, if he does. Based on the rewrite and on the contributions of Sime0n (talk · contribs), it's clear that this is a vanity/hoax article, and that Kwan is not a basketball star, musician, astronaut, intergalactic time-traveler, or anything else Sime0n chooses to invent for himself. android79 18:56, July 28, 2005 (UTC)
• None of those three pages on google are particularly official either- compare to a very unknown hockey prospect, Troy Bodie- on google, "Troy Bodie" + hockey gets over a 1000 hits. Delete. --Scimitar ^parley 14:06, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
• International superstars overseas is fine with me, but if his notability is derived from him aspiring to NBA, then he has to measure up with US standards of notability -- Delete for reason of non-notability, and if it's speedy for suspected vanity, no objection from me. --DrTorstenHenning 15:51, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete: "International superstars overseas" are fine. Folks overseas who are wishing to become superstars are not yet notable enough for a biography in an encyclopedia. Geogre 21:23, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. You can have all the potential you like, and still be utterly non-notable. -Splash 00:40, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
• delete. the article was totally rewritten by the same contributor, but describing totally different things. This makes me think it is a hoax. mikka (t) 18:45, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and protect the page to prevent recreation. Definite hoax by known vandal. -- Antaeus Feldspar 20:46, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
