Vanity page created by a single-purpose account. The subject of the page spends his free time blogging about the disability of not-so-disabling Tourette syndrome, receiving passing mentions at best: the most reliable sources are Calabasas Patch and the Jewish Tribe Journal; accomplishments include holding a talk for high school kids and shaking a congressman's hand. Possibly the least notable subject to have been on wikipedia so far, keeping this article would open the floodgates of having an article about whoever blogs about rescuing upturned terrapins or building model train tracks.

- Apologies - I saw it pop up on my watchlist without steps 2 and 3 - feel free to modify the nomination reason. Black Kite (talk) 13:13, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No problem; I don't AfD much, and am therefore quite slow with these things [this refers to an edit overlap between me and Black Kite; reviewers need not heed]. complainer (talk) 13:21, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. The coverage, even in the marginally reliable sources noted in nominator's rationale, is routine. They have to find someone every single month to be the Calabasas whiz kid of the month; that shouldn't also give them a wikipedia page. There's not much else out there about this kid.What do you have against terrapins?— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 16:27, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I can assure you of my full solidarity with the cause of upturned terrapins; I just think people should be out there straightening them instead of blogging about it complainer (talk) 19:06, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - he appears to be a nice kid, and will surely go far, but I don't see how he passes WP:GNG by any stretch. Bearian (talk) 20:07, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
