Engin Varol[edit]

This article was created by the subject's son with no understanding of Wikipedia's notability guidelines or original research policy. I can't find any indication of notability from any English sources, but the article does seem to assert notability in a reasonable way which is why I didn't speedy delete it myself. The article on the Turkish Wikipedia (also written by his son) is brand-new as well and lists no sources. Kafziel ^Talk 19:28, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete per A7. Parsing the text, I see that a) he has a job and b) other famous people who held that job have influenced him. I see NO actually assertions of significance or notability here... Thus speedy A7. --Jayron32|talk|contribs 19:34, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You know what? You're right. The claims of notability are thin enough for a speedy. Done. Kafziel ^Talk 19:51, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
