Fails WP:BIO completely. He is simply a person interviewed by Kinsey and mentioned by name in the movie and, I suppose, books. It is an incidental mention at best, and the person isn't notable - his sexual activity, while bizarre and illegal, is probably not notable either and should only be mentioned if made the subject of independent research. -Lilac Soul ^{(Talk • Contribs)} 20:01, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Well, unless some reliable sources can be provided to prove notability, this clearly fails WP:GNG. Truthsort (talk) 21:15, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I have tagged this article for rescue and added some sources. I believe that it should be notable. Silver seren^C 07:16, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete as G10 which, contrary to popular misconception, isn't limited to living persons. A poor attack page. It serves no purpose but to attack the subject: a clear G10. --Mkativerata (talk) 09:45, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - G10 speedy declined: I do not agree that attacking the subject is the only purpose of this page. JohnCD (talk) 10:00, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Quite apart from the WP:TONE issues (which could well cross the line into G10 territory), I'm not convinced they meet WP:GNG either, per nom/others above. The article says he was published in Kinsey's work as "Mr. X or Rex King" so making him a named individual and dedicating an article to his alleged exploits seems hardly necessary.
