Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brian Caswell

Brian Caswell was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was to rewrite the article about the Welsh author. Rossami 21:48, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Delete - vanity/advert. - Created by Brian Caswell about himself. He refers in the summary that the article is about "me". - Tεxτurε 21:53, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- 16:43, 27 Jul 2004 (hist) Brian Caswell (me)
- 16:37, 27 Jul 2004 (hist) Snort (add external link to the website)
- 16:37, 27 Jul 2004 (hist) Shmoo Group (add me as a link)
beat me to it ;-). Merge any pertinent info with Snort, which is notable, though minus points for self-promotion. Ianb 21:58, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Ditto. Lose all the self-promotional hoo-haa. - Lucky 6.9 22:00, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Rewrite as a stub on Brian Caswell, the Australian author whose books are studied in schools in at least one state here. Ambivalenthysteria 00:07, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Delete. The author of notable software is not necessarily notable himself. Wile E. Heresiarch 00:39, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Delete. Self-written articles aren't allowed on Wikipedia. If you're famous, someone else will write one for you. If they don't, well you're not famous after all. Average Earthman 13:26, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I've been bold and replaced the vanity article with one about the much more well-known Welsh/Australian author. - TB 14:22, Jul 29, 2004 (UTC)
Keep new stub. Ambi 07:20, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Rewrites like this are the reason I love this page. Keep great new stub. - Lucky 6.9 03:04, 31 Jul 2004 (UTC)
