Wikiquote:Votes for deletion/Orange

Orange
I had placed a PROD on this page for the following reason: "The only quote comes from a work with no Google Book Search, Google or Amazon results. No evidence of author's notability." The quote originally included the source, a book entitled Quotologists and Paraphrasers (2008). The same IP editor who had created the page has now removed the PROD tag, which brings it here. A number of theme pages have had quotes by Gregory Alan Elliott. I had removed them on the grounds of unnotability. The same IP editor has been restoring them. It is possible, of course, that this theme page will be kept with other, more notable quotes; but it is also an opportunity, I would argue, to determine if Elliott meets our notability requirements and whether his quotes should remain on our pages. - InvisibleSun 19:56, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Is this supposed to be a page on the color, orange, or on the fruit (in which case it should be at "oranges")? Either way, the lone quote that currently occupies the page should not survive. Rewrite or delete. BD2412 T 02:12, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. A notable absurdity is a very fine thing. This isn't. ~ Ningauble 01:01, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I see no evidence through my internet searches engines (remembering that they are limited and imperfect) that Elliott is famous or notable using the customary meaning of notable as an inclusion criteria on Wikiquote or Wikipedia-en. I took a few minutes and I looked for works with notable phrases about the fruit and color, or any other reference to the word. I found several songs with the title, Orange, but no lyrics were easily available to check for notable lines. I found many works with the nursery rhyme, "Oranges and Lemons". I don't think a page is needed for that one verse. Nothing else especially quotable was found. I didn't spend loads of time looking so I might have missed something. If nothing else is found and added before the Vfd closes, delete. FloNight&#9829;&#9829;&#9829; 17:23, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
