Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Robert Edward Hayhurst
At first, I was tempted to be snarky and denounce a mass nomination, but closer investigation shows that these all were made in a series by one editor: {{user|Packerfansam}}. She seems to be a serial bio-stub creator (with a strong emphasis on sports players, but plenty of military bios as well). There is nothing particularly wrong with creating lots of articles, or even lots of stubs (in fact, that's commendable, IMO), but the volume and rapid succession does suggest that she's going off of a list or database without a lot of individual consideration to each person and thier suitability. I haven't seen any discussion about such a mass creation, so please let me know if there is one. I've said in the past that I strongly disagree with the provision in  that a third-tier valor award isn't enough, and I still stand by that conviction. However, these articles are essentially nothing but the text of the citation, which isn't enough (and violates  in trying to make a repository of citations rather than biographies). I feel that means we should '''improve''' these articles to something more significant by the end of the AfD, or else '''transfer''' the citation text to Wikisource, with one exception. The nominator himself casts doubt on the non-notability of Elaine Roe, and I think we should '''keep''' her as a significant female first. I've also notified Packerfansam of this AfD
