[edit] Walter D. Petrovic

This is an article about a non-notable person, possible vanity. Rje 04:10, Feb 27, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Vanity. Non-notable. I love the quote: "Above is first-hand information obtained from Walter D. Petrovic himself.". Zzyzx11 04:37, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, not notable, vanity. Megan1967 04:45, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, obvious vanity. --Someoneinmyheadbutit'snotme 07:01, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, unpublished author, no other claim to notability. —Korath (Talk) 07:07, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
• Oh, dear, I'm torn. I can't actually vouch for notability here, because I can't find a damn thing on either Google or Amazon to support it, and yet just seeing his name in the VfD contents list immediately pinged my internal "hey! Canadian writer!" alarm. I don't know if I'm psychic, or missing something somewhere. (My late response is attributable not to a delayed reaction, but to the fact that I simply didn't see it before. This was my first serious scan of VfD topics in a couple of weeks; my VfD activity lately has been restricted to topics that got posted to the Canadian discussion board by other people.) Could we please withhold deletion for one more day so I can ask the Canucks for input? Bearcat 08:11, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Looks like nobody's weighed in...go ahead and delete. If I come across later proof that my response was factually warranted and not just a weird coincidental hunch, I can always recreate the article with a better explanation of notability. Bearcat 22:49, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
