:Speedy delete I've nominated this for speedy as a copyright violation--the promotional and eulogistic tone is a giveaway. Though with some digging it may be possible to find sources to start over [1]. 99.170.154.183 (talk) 17:58, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Note -- The website which you have cited as the source of the text was created in January 2011 -- 3 months after the Wikipedia article was created in October 2010. Although I agree that the language is promotional, eulogistic and non-encyclopedic, (and the source of both articles is probably the same), it is not an clear copyvio. Therefore, I have declined the G12 speedy deletion. — CactusWriter (talk) 18:20, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Good catch. It was apparently written by the subject's daughter, which accounts for the tribute tone. Perhaps it can be stripped down and rewritten, provided reliable sources are added. 99.170.154.183 (talk) 18:22, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
