Christie Appelhanz[edit]

Non-notable freelance writer. No Amazon hits. --Calton 12:37, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Delete very likely vanity, certainly non-notable. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:17, Jan 23, 2005 (UTC)

Delete Who cares? No distinguished accomplishments. Just using Wikipedia for self-promotion. Get this: "Still living in 2005"???? DELETE, DELETE, DELETE!----Keetoowah 19:41, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)

At very best a marginal notible. I found google hits for a syndicated column but no author of books on Amazon. Could very well be using Wiki for self-promotion, though its uncertain. I don't see why Congressional staff members or their consultants should get publicity. Found this through "Dennis Moore" link. Midwestbluesfan 22:41, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Stand and deliver! I want you to hand over all the lupins you've got. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 23:52, Jan 23, 2005 (UTC)

Not only does she not have any books listed in Amazon, but the screenplay that she refers to doesn't appear on IMDB. She did do the Peace Corps work, but she stopped before her term was finished. The newspaper column was about the Peace Corps work, but it ended when she abruptly quit the Peace Corps work. When you does a little research behind this entry you can plainly see that she is simply engaging in self-promotion--against Wikipedia policy. Should be set for a speedly deletion.-----Keetoowah 01:17, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Delete, not notable, vanity, possible hoax. Megan1967 02:08, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Delete I could only find the newspaper column, which, yes, ends abruptly with no explanation of why she's quitting Peace Corps assignment(27 months). IMO the column was unprofessional and had a condescending tone. I agree with Keetoowah, who's really done research. This is just self-promotion of a freelancer who worked behind the scenes for a congressman. Also info on Rep. Dennis Moore (D-KS) shows a Rebecca Black listed as press secretary. I say remove this entry entirely. Midwestbluesfan 02:51, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)
