Speedy deletion of Anne Blair Brown

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Anne Blair Brown requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. – PranksterTurtle (talk) 22:26, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • There are still a couple of problems. First, the sources are still almost entirely galleries selling Ms. Brown's work, which are not independent. The couple of independent sources you cited are general references, with no specific links to any discussion of Ms. Brown. Second, the article is written in the style of a promotional/sales piece rather than an objective biography. It refers to her as "Anne" throughout, and includes language like "A former chef, Anne has a passion for cafes, restaurants and city life. Whether it is waiters tending to patrons, bartenders cleaning after a busy shift or people just walking the street, her work reflects her observations of the people and places she visits." How is it neutral that "Anne has a passion" for things? More importantly, how can that be verified by a neutral source? Please look at WP:NPOV and WP:V.
