[edit] Vera Gafron

Vera Gafron (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

This person is by no means a well-known German model. A Google search yields no relevant results other than self-promotion. Her entry on German Wikipedia has been suggested for deletion as well. Heikoh (talk) 04:30, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Close as delete Ignore all the sock puppeting, and we have a consensus. References are lacking. The German interwiki link is dead; apparently they deleted their copy of the article. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 03:52, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment such a strange AfD with all the dirty socks and nominator who has only made 3 edits (all to list this afd) since May 2007. Anyway, I searched for information on Vera Gafron, and I found that she was/is the subject of a controversy within her field of modeling in Germany. As such, I believe that there must be reliable sources, but they are likley in German. I used google translator to get the gist of this source, (google translation). See the section titled "die Lüge von den längsten Beinen" (the lie of the longest legs). I don't know how notable that is, or how reliable the source is. It seems to me to be a reliable source, only in that it contains balanced critical content of the German modeling agency industry. A search of google pictures (don't ask why!) shows many pictures that are evidently in various magazines, some showing significant coverage (8 page photoshoot, for example). One showing Miss Berlin 2006, one showing cover article for some magaine. She is a model for Redken, and others... seems very much like the typical stuff for supermodels.

  • Delete per lack of sufficient coverage by reliable sources. The fist one mentioned above by Jerry is not reliable since the site is that of another model (Nadin Haensch), the second (Stern) is okay, but just tells us that she was one of three winners to win a local beauty contest and didn't seem to happy about having to share it, and I didn't find a better source. --Tikiwont (talk) 10:32, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
