Proposed deletion of Bob Ralston


The article Bob Ralston has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * No citations aside from a directory citation. Because of lack of notability, this article is causing a legitimate dispute at the BLP Noticeboard in regards to publicly available information online that ordinarily would not be allowed to be included on a biography, but in this case is more notable than a personal webpage. Therefore, deletion is proposed for non-notability and to quell a preventable dispute at the BLP noticeboard.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

BLP Issues
You may want to be appraised of BLP issues presumably involving you at an article about you (which is currently being considered for deletion). Generally, even if potentially derogatory information is true, there is a higher bar of inclusion of that information at Wikipedia, namely notability. Afronig (talk) 22:00, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
