Not notable. A long list of sub-notable achievements (teacher, graduate student, "delegation leader" for the "Harrisburg, Pennsylvania area chapter of Amnesty International") do not sum up to one notable one. There is some third party coverage of this person (for having walked from Pennsylvania to the West Coast) but not enough to make him notable. The entry is almost entirely the work of a long list of SPA accounts, the latest one created today to remove the {notability} and {orphan} tags on the entry.

Another new account deleted the AFD tag; I have started a sock investigation here: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/OhioSarah. Hairhorn (talk) 03:37, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Although I respect long distance hikers who raise money for worthy causes, I don't think that the routine newspaper coverage that such ventures garner is sufficient to show notability. Cullen328 (talk) 02:26, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
