Why would you propose deletion within minutes of another editor creating the article? To my knowledge, there is no rule that says that you have to write a complete article "off line", and then post it to Wikipedia. An article can develop over a reasonable period. Could you give a person a fair period to get the article going...I dunno, perhaps 1 or 2 hours, before proposing an article for deletion? (except in the case of obvious vandalism, such as "Mary Bobosski is a ((#$)*", whic is obviously not a real article). I think that you were too "quick on the trigger", fellow editor.OnBeyondZebrax (talk) 20:03, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- I just checked on the article history page...the Deletion proposal went up FOUR (4) minute after the article was created. Can a person not be given a reasonable grace period, let us say, 30 minutes or so, before you put up the deletion notice?OnBeyondZebrax (talk) 20:06, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
This article is completely ridiculous and should be deleted. This is not a topic that deserves a dedicated article, and it is written in an inappropriate style. Of some interest is the list of works, but this is fairly poor - I went straight for Wagner and noticed he is not mentioned...
