Most sources are primary. Article is heavy on COI and trivia. Another user tried to nominate this but instead relisted a discussion from 2009, which had a result of "no consensus", so this is more a procedural nom than anything else.

- Delete Vanity page, nothing to indicate notability. He once ran for mayor of Pasadena but lost heavily, getting barely a thousand votes. His professional wrestling activities seem equally non-notable. Same for his writing and blogging. Basically he is a 29-year-old who has yet to make any mark on the world. --MelanieN (talk) 20:00, 2 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Has achieved some notoriety in two very different areas. Notability is established with indepedent, third party sources. GaryColemanFan (talk) 02:44, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

- Delete - being an also-ran candidate in a smallish city doesn't confer notability. Plenty of coverage in local periodicals, but a lack of coverage outside of that. Many of the articles simply mention Proctor in coverage of the mayor. Others are coverage about yet another blog- hardly sufficient for depth of coverage per WP:GNG. tedder (talk) 05:49, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Delete - clearly non-notable for being a failed political candidate, see WP:POLITICIAN. Ditto for his blogging. He may be notable as a pro wrestler, but cites would be needed for this. (I don't know enough about pro wrestling). In any case his blogging and political "careers" are non notable and should be hugely reduced, like to a single sentence.

- Delete The accumulated importance of the subjects various activities do not seem to achieve article level importance. --Stormbay (talk) 02:57, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
