This SargeK article by SargeK himself seems to be a vanity piece about a non-notable individual Oscarthecat 21:53, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- It's not about vanity. It is about spreading the word on Social Security Reforms. Since its inception last year, my domain debtism.com has received tens of thousands of visitors, that is PROVABLE. Visit the site and see for yourself. + - + - SargeK
- Delete This is definetely a pointless webpage someone wrote about themselves. I would advise Wikipedia to delete it right now. Electricbassguy
- You don't have a clew what is on the website. Since I posted SargeK on Wikipedia, you or no one else would have had time to read the articles (FIFTEEN of THEM) http://www.debtism.com/ SargeK
- Delete both. John Koraska has written an article titled "Debtism - The Legacy of Perpetual Debt". Searching his name and that article ([1]) gives 493 links on google, mostly on free-hosted websites (many of which contain little but poker site ads) and blogs. Searching his name excluding the article title ([2]) returns 19 links. This is a man on a mission. However, wikipedia is not a soapbox. --Ezeu 22:46, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Both articles appear to be specifically designed for promotion of the debtism.com website: SargeK is a non-notable person, and Debtism is an advertisement and possibly original research. WP:NOT a vehicle for advertising.

Comment: The above is a sampling of articles on my debtism.com website. Tens of thousands of have read my articles since I started last year. No advertisements, Just an attempt to get to the truth about tax and welfare programs and sharing it with the widest audience possible. Since all I get is “delete” response from wikipedia, I’ll not waste any more of your time NOR mine. I'm neither notable, not do I care to be. I am doing my best to bring attention to significant Social Security, tax and welfare problems that have little effect on me; but may impact my sons and grand-son in a manner they cannot yet conceive. Sorry about posting here. I should have done more research before wasting a lot of time. Thanks anyway SargeK
- Sorry, SargeK, but Wikipedia is not intended to promote other websites or ideas; it's an encyclopedia, intended to document aspects of the world that need documenting. I hope you'll stick around and contribute to other articles that are more encyclopedic. bikeable (talk) 03:05, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
