Deletion of Joseph Addison (Scottish writer)

Comment: Makes no substantive claim of |notability that would satisfy , and doesn't cite nearly enough |reliable source coverage to claim  instead. I also note from the edit history that the article was previously tagged for prod as an unsourced BLP, but the creator removed the tag with the edit summary "No references? Why don't you try READING THE ARTICLE?!" — but while the article does list an external link, that link is to a source which ''fails'' to satisfy GNG or to demonstrate any reason why he would qualify for a Wikipedia article on any criterion more substantive than "he exists". Mere existence is not what gets a writer into Wikipedia, however — reliable source coverage, supporting a substantive claim of notability, is what it takes. But that's lacking
