autobiography by schoolboy. No indication of WP:notability. References given mostly do not mention him. One reference has his name on the caption of a photo. noq (talk) 15:46, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Noq has already tried to get this article deleted and has continuously been bothering me about multiple articles that admins have found have nothing wrong, including this one earlier today. Im fed up being victimised by Noq. Keep article as it is well progressed with plenty of references and Noq if you knew what you were looking for then you would see that i am mentioned. EastBelfastBoy (talk) 15:54, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As I can see now, Noq seems to be causing trouble for the user EastBelfastBoy as he seems determined to get rid of his articles. Like I said earlier today in my other statement when Noq tried to delete the article, it has plenty of references and I believe that the article is reliable and honest and should be kept. Noq says he doesn't appear but he does on Wellington's Website and his play and school is mentioned on DanceUnited site. On Connswater Greenway if you click Gallery he is in a section on that page aswell. Everything on this page has a reference to show it is truthful and able to be verifyed.

Delete. Clearly and obviously does not meet the requirements of the WP:GNG. — Satori Son 16:14, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~ At the start it says Christopher Lynn was face of Connswater Greenway 2007 and on the reference it takes you to the website and gallery which shows that Christopher was face, Wellington College Website shows under science that Christopher did take part and represent the school. Over the halfpenny bridge is mentioned on DanceUnited website multiple times if you look further through it and it says Elmgrove took part and was previously on the Elmgrove website too.

Delete EastBelfastBoy's citations are to website homepages that don't even mention the article subject. Of all 8 citations, one has the subject's name and it is only a mere mention in a picture caption. Subject grossly fails WP:GNG and User:Noq is spot on. User:PleasurelandBelfast is likily strongly related to and has a WP:COI with User:EastBelfastBoy.--v/r - T P 16:30, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I do not know PleasureLandBelfast, just because a user feels that an article has a right doesn't mean the users know each other, that is like saying Noq and Satori Son know each other, which im sure they don't. EastBelfastBoy (talk) 16:37, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I do hope you are telling the truth, but just to be sure I have filed a Checkuser request at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/EastBelfastBoy. — Satori Son 17:03, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

delete good lord, it is quite clear that this fails wp:gng. even leaving alone the state of the references, which is poor, the list of films fails wp:crystalball in a peculiar manner, in that not only are the release dates of the films 75% in the future, but they're already listed as "cancelled".

Delete nothing to add that hasn't been said above, I'm almost surprised this hasn't been speedy-ed. U-Mos (talk) 19:26, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete The only possible claim of notability is throwing £23m over a bridge, but I suspect it's something symbolic such as Monopoly money - the cited source makes no explicit mention. No indication that Lynn was anything other than peripherally involved in the grant. So with effectively no claim to notability the article can be deleted immediately.--A bit iffy (talk) 19:33, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per failed verification of claims in the article. VQuakr (talk) 19:45, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete. "Claim" to notability is 1) being in a photo with three other kids a local paper throwing pretend money, and 2) a role in a production drawing children from local schools where he's not mentioned in any coverage. That's not even worth a deletion discussion. It's a shame that EastBelfastBoy has chosen to develop a persecution complex, because he might have become a valued contributor had he listened to constructive advice when it was offered.
