No assertion of Notability, no sources provided and none that I can find on google that would otherwise support this. Benea (talk) 05:57, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete non-notable. (Google search came up empty & article itself provides no information that seems to me to support notability.) TheScotch (talk) 09:47, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: The above account seems to have been created 3/21/8, which rather suggests to me that it may be a sock puppet. Is there a way to check this? TheScotch (talk) 04:43, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- It certainly seems possible. WP:NOREASON also applies in the case. This is not a vote and actual arguments must be presented or it may be dismissed. Benea (talk) 05:26, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: There are currently five contributions attributed to this editor. Three are clearly vandalism: same article (H), same day, same edit. Another is a brief introductory sentence at the editor's user page, and the fifth is this endorsement. I'd like someone to trace the address. TheScotch (talk) 05:24, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
