Barely a claim of true notability in this resume-like, near hagiography. No significant coverage in independent reliable sources able to be found. The-Pope (talk) 15:11, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Brushes with greatness does not establish notability. Sources are about the notable people he met, not the subject. DarkAudit (talk) 15:37, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This individual doesn't seem to meet WP:POLITICIAN, or have any other claim to meeting notability standards. There are a number of references I found that indicate that Mr. Nolte discovered the dead body of a member of the musical group Men At Work, and was interviewed about it, and that doesn't confer notability either.

Delete, regretfully. It seems like there should be significant coverage for someone like him (particularly for his five years on the Melbourne City Council), but all I could find at Google News Archive was a single incident, namely his peripheral connection with the death of Greg Ham. I considered a redirect to Melbourne City Council, but that link is simply a redirect to the City of Melbourne - and I notice that most of the current councillors do not have articles. So I think "delete" is the way to go. I am open to changing my mind if significant coverage can be found. --MelanieN (talk) 16:53, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Wikipedia is not a means of promotion. Puff peice by PR account. duffbeerforme (talk) 08:03, 13 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above comments. Based on edit summaries, username Markstonepr quickly changes to username Markstone57, google search appears to result in Markstone Group, 54 Walsh St, West Melbourne VIC 3003, Australia, 03 93292777. No website. Timeshift (talk) 07:26, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per nom. There are sources but doesn't quite give notability. Many facts are not sourced nor does look notable. It also fails WP:GNG. →TSU ^tp* 06:58, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
