I have added a "{{ prod}}" template to the article Clayton Counts, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also " What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

See the top notices on WP:AN for where to report different forms of abuse by users. Also Wikipedia:Notability (music), Wikipedia:Notability (people), Afd Wikiquette and Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. I suggest you include the press mentions in the article text, with reasonable quotes (i.e. not too long) and referenced. See Anna Svidersky and Mark Bellinghaus for examples.

I'll keep a look out. It defiantly deserves to be there. JohnRussell 16:07, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Just an update on User:April Winchell. I caught him/her vandalizing again today, and reported her to WP:AIV. S/he's been blocked indefinitely. RedRollerskate 05:14, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
Trevor - Please read the page on reliable sources Wikipedia:Reliable_sources - it is pretty clear on the fact that a personal website or blog is not a reliable source. I didn't make up this rule - but as an editor, I feel it is my responsibility to enforece it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Absenter ( talk • contribs) 16:42, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
Trevor - thank you for the note. I do feel strongly about this. It seems that we are odds about this, I would rather not go back and forth in a edit war and think it would be best settled by an arbitrator. The article reads as a biographical entry, I believe it should be sourced as such. If Clayton Counts is a stage name - like Slash Slash_(musician), or is merely an alter-ego Chris_Gaines - it should be sourced similar to those articles - especially when discussing death.

Trevor - I am not attempting to be biased in any way. Any report of death from an unreliable source should be considered a rumor as I see it. If you feel I am being biased, that might be best for the arbitrator(s) to decide. Absenter ( talk) 18:04, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
