Hoax - the line Roe Green Visiting Director Chair, Kent State University, 2008. seems very suspicious. Also an autobiography. Sigma 7 04:33, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment how can it be hoax and autobiography at the same time? also: a google search for Roe Green Director Chair or for Matthew Earnest theatre will get you some hits, so its not a hoax. Question remains is it notable per WP:BIO?—Gaff ταλκ 05:21, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Searching for verifiable confirmation of notability: nothing on google news about deep ellum ensemble, nor for "Matthew Earnest", nothing in Dalls Morning News, however, a Google search "Matthew Earnest" theatre gets a few. Its possible that the newspaper or trade magazine coverage is just not available on the internet. I am inclined to vote delete given the lack of verifiable references and that its autobiography. Since the contributor is obviously close to the topic, then references should be readily available if they exist, eh? —Gaff ταλκ 17:47, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I'm evaluating this article as an autobiography, not a hoax. Anyway, he's not notable per se in my opinion, and there's no neutral version in the page history to fall back on. YechielMan 03:09, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete its not a hoax - appears to have a number of webhits; however, I am not sure he is notable enough for an article - if someone can show otherwise I'd gladly change my mind. Bigdaddy1981 05:29, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete, seems to be verifiable, some possibility of notability, nothing definite. --Dhartung | Talk 07:54, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of New York-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 13:24, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: Also included on the conflict of interest noticeboard. -FeralDruid 13:34, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep, there is some notability established per the above users, but the possible WP:COI is troublesome. Ten Pound Hammer • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 22:50, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep Here's some of the Google news results you were looking for: [1] nadav (talk) 05:35, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep for the Roe Green chair, see [2] and [3]. How can anyone possibly judge something with a specific name as a hoax without at least looking in google? Are you aware that your description of it as a hoax remains in google forever? So the first reason for deletion is simply wrong. The second reason, AUTO is not a reason for deletion. Invalid nomination altogether. DGG 19:24, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
