Jacob McCauley[edit]

Contested speedy (db-bio) from a week ago. Fails WP:BIO. A vanity article about a member of a band that's borderline notable at best. Reyk _YO! 03:59, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete of course. Who in their right mind contested this speedy? It totally meets the CSD-A7 criteria. A textbook example if I ever saw one, actually. JBsupreme (talk) 07:34, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Whether I am in my right mind is, of course, debatable. However, speedy criteria say that as long as there is a claim of notability (even if it isn't sourced and it might not be true), the article should go to prod or AfD instead. Karanacs (talk) 13:28, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete vain vanity in vain. JuJube (talk) 08:11, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Speedy tag seems to have been removed based on this sentence "Jacob has also won 1st place in the 1st annual Canadian Celtic Music Compeition in 2008(Fleadh) as well as winning an award in the Detroit Fleadh in 2008." but, I can't find any evidence of such a competition even existing.
