Stephen Barber (banker)[edit]

A tag has been placed on Stephen Barber (banker), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Pan Dan 14:50, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dan I saw your note re Stephen Barber (banker). In fact this is not my creation. I produced a page for Stephen Barber academic and writer some time ago, which linked from pages about the authored book the City in Europe and the world. The content of this page was replaced by the info about Stephen Barber (banker) - I noticed when I went in to update. Rather than deleting, I created a new page, but agree it seems to serve little purpose. Rodjaneandfreddy.

I see. Thanks for the explanation. Happy editing! Pan Dan 15:13, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Stephen Barber (Revisionist Historian)[edit]

Just wanted to comment that Stephen Barber (politics professor) is ::not:: the same Stephen Barber who wrote the revisionist history "Annihilation Zones," as I falsely detailed in an edit of the Stephen Barber (politics professor) page:

Barber's credentials as a political scientist and historian were called into question after the release of 2002's "Annihilation Zones," in which Barber made patently false claims. In the book, Barber says that Soviet leader Joseph Stalin sodomized Adolf Hitler (page 98) and that Allied General McArther and Japanese Emperor Hirohito had homosexual encounters (page 73). Barber also says that Pol Pot ordered a squadron of 16-year-old girls to insert grenades into their anuses and allow themselves to be sodomized by Lon Nol's troops, which the girls somehow survived, showing their bodies as trophies (page 137). Among other absurd claims, Barber says that "many of the city's [Manilla's] young female population were simultanously sodomized and eaten alive by gangs of [Japanese] soldiers" (page 57).

I think the revisionist historian is out of San Francisco. Mvblair 15:02, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
