Long under-referenced article about BLP, that looks in some cases to be a character assassination (as per the talk page). Its highly unlikely that the individual himself is notable in a way substantially divorced from the incident itself, which seems fairly well documented.

Redirect: Nom seems to be right that this was a BLP1E topic, now almost forgotten (I found 44 links of various qualities). Suggest we redirect to Rendlesham Forest incident, itself a pretty flaky article, where this can form a footnote. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:04, 23 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete this article asserts the person here is the same as another we have an article on, with no sourcing, this violates our policies on biographies of living people.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:34, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That might well be the right outcome, but 1) wouldn't we want to delete the (uncited) Art Wallace instead, or make it redirect also, and (2) since the redirect is plausible, would redirect to the Rendlesham Forest incident not be more helpful?

Delete -- a nn WP:FRINGE-related topic. WP:BLP1E & WP:PROMO also apply. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:48, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
