The result was delete. Not much discussion, but the article itself doesn't establish notability, and the nominator obviously tried to find something to add but failed. - Bobet 23:05, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tommy Nero
Delete Looking on google (and, yes, I know it's not the end all be all of notability) "Tommy Nero" generates 5,240 hits[1]. But a quick look shows some are in Italian (Nero being an Italian surname) and this article is about an American. It also seems to be many pages not about the same guy. So the article says he is a fashion designer. "Tommy Nero" + fashion (a logical search since he is said to be a fashion designer, and hence the reason for his notability) leads to this - 882 hits [2]. I'll let the voters sift thru these links, but you will notice most are blogs and self-generated press releases matching the links on the article (www.pressreleasespider.com, www.365business.info, www.articles-hub.com, ad nauseum), and many of those are actually dead links. The constant thru all of those postings is "fashion fusion" and a place/venue called deja vu. So "Tommy Nero" + fashion, - fusion, -dejavu (if he is a real fashion designer of note, removing 2 keywords should still generate many hits) and you are down to 100[3] and most of those are just wikimirrors and myspace links. The only "war correspondent" pieces offered up are an interview of an heir of the Benz family upon his graduation from basic training (not exactly in the heat of battle) and then posted on a web site called www.prweb.com and an interview with a captain who was in Iraq, a link that is now dead.--Nobunaga24 13:51, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
