Keith Manly[edit]

I'm listing this here at AfD per the request of a user claiming to be Keith Manly. The user has repeatedly tagged it as a speedy, but since there is some potential notability asserted and other users have edited the article, there's no clear cut case for a speedy here. I don't have any true opinion one way or another, although I am having a bit of trouble finding sources. Editors should note that he is under the name "Keith Manly" as well as "Keith E. Mann".

I'd like to also state that while the article claims that Manly produced, directed, and wrote Evolution - Why Bother?, this book asserts that it was done by the American Institute of Biological Sciences. I know that they hire other people to help, but I can't really find anything to back up that Manly is this director other than his primary sources. If I could find one source on say, the AIBS site that backed him up as the director then this would go a long way towards establishing notability, if anyone can find this.

- Delete If the user can provide proof that he is Mr Manly to an administrator, then it ought be speedily deleted as per his request. Not sure why he would want his entry deleted, but I believe it should be done as a courtesy if that's what he wants. He doesn't appear to be particularly notable and there aren't any decent references anyway. Wouldn't be a great loss. -- Hillbillyholiday ^talk 21:16, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
