Non-notable unsuccessful political candidate. Lost badly in most recent primary election. Other claims to notability are minuscule at best: his blog was quoted a time or two, and he's on a local human relations commission. Not enough there to make him notable. Reads like it was written by a PR firm (or him). PROD deleted without explanation. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 05:25, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete fails WP:POLITICIAN. Deleting PROD isn't exactly being neighborly, either. --Mr. Vernon (talk) 05:56, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I understand that someone is attempting to delete this article, however, as is common with people within political circles, this appears to be a blatant attack. Unfortunately, this is not the first time the candidate has been attacked via the internet. His work to expand stalking laws and cyber harrassment has made him a direct target. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dixieblue (talk • contribs) 03:50, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This comment following page blanking was originally reverted. FWIW, here it is. --AmaltheaTalk 12:25, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Dixieblue originaly erased this entire discussion, then replaced it with the remarks above. I restored the original AfD (and chastised DixieBlue severely), but failed to restore his comments. My bad. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 15:34, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, fails WP:BIO et al.—news coverage that google unearthed is trivial, other assertions of notability aren't enough to pass WP:BIO, WP:POLITICIAN or WP:MUSIC. --AmaltheaTalk 12:22, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
