James Arey

Not notable either for his journalistic efforts or for his badly failed local government candidacy. Please delete. The Land 17:35, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

• Weak keep. Apparently started as a vanity entry, but appears an ok article now with at least one legitimate link to it from more important article. Local media personalities who've made minor dabbles in politics are generally not something we need articles on, but when they're properly formatted and referenced like this one, IMO they're mostly harmless, and of some possible use to someone doing research. -- Infrogmation 01:19, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
