Perhaps I'm going mad, but I'm sure I read somewhere that a Wikipedia article cannot be obtained through Wikipedia editing alone? That's all Pulsifer seems to be notable for. The phrase "minor media celebrity" sums it up beautifully. Launchballer 18:46, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

5th nomination! Unbelievable. Could someone please: delete Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Simon Pulsifer (3rd nomination); move Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Simon Pulsifer (2nd nomination) to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Simon Pulsifer (3rd nomination) and move Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Simon Pulsifer 2 to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Simon Pulsifer (2nd nomination). I am considering whether or not I want to proceed with this.--Launchballer 18:53, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep "I'm sure I read somewhere" doesn't cut it as a reason to delete. Get back to us when you actually have a link to policy. The sources such as Time and USA Today seem quite solid and if they found the subject notable, we have no reason to differ. Andrew (talk) 20:58, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I've just spent at least half an hour trying to find it. I know I read it on Wikipedia, but I can only assume that it's been gotten rid of or reworded. I am going to withdraw this, but my AfD movement request in my second comment stands.--Launchballer 21:18, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy Keep No valid reason for deletion. Wikipedia contributors have the same notability requirements as anyone else, and this AfD plainly fails WP:BEFORE. If you're not sure about a policy, ask at the help desk first: even if there were grounds for deletion, the world's not going to end if this article persists an extra day. Also, there's a lot of incorrectly numbered deletion discussions for different articles, and correcting them doesn't appear to be considered a priority (renumbering is likely to break links, disrupt logs, etc). --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:47, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
