[edit] Zach Hines
Article is an unremarkable autobiography. Also nominating AfD for related "Zach hines" redirect. MMX 23:45, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
- Userfy (and delete redirect page) Fails WP:BIO and WP:AUTO. Only ghit for "The Daily Succinct" is the subject article and the domain seems to have expired for "OSTENSIBLE Magazine". Writing amateur movie reviews alone means the subject fails the notability test. Caknuck 00:16, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
- I vote No. I think the article should receive a cleanup of those 'Daily succint' projects. I can't find any sources of them at all. However, he is a high-profile editor in Hong Kong, the second-largest english magazine in Asia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Brownsies (talk • contribs) 15:13, 28 October 2006.
- I vote Yes. Pages like this are completely irrelevant and utterly self-righteous. The links don't work properly and Zach Hines is not highly regarded (or high profile) in any journalistic respect. There are far better writers and editors in the world who haven't written themselves up. I think this page is unneccesary. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mondobrutale (talk • contribs) 09:24, 3 November 2006.
- I vote no. I believe the point of wikipedia is to (at least one day) be a repository of all knowledge we have, and I have found this entry useful in writing a paper about English-language journalism in the former British colony. It was useful in the respect that it helped me to at least gauge the number of active journalists there. It provided no substantial information to be sure, but it was useful in that it was included in the list of Hong Kong writers. If you delete all stubs and short articles that are included in useful lists then you are subtracting from the power of lists, which I find to be one of the most useful aspects of the entire wikipedia project. I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 61.10.12.73 (talk • contribs) 15:48, 5 November 2006.
