Adam Fein
 Given the current content of the page, I propose that it be deleted as a non-notable biography that fails WP:BIO. It is about an aspiring comic who is a college student with a blog (not linked) and a Facebook profile (not unlike millions of college and high school students). There are no sources backing up the claims in the article that the subject is "a potential comedic-genius" by Dead Frog, and "vulgar, disgusting, and unequivacally repulsive" by Red America,a conservative internet blogsite and forum." - the links only go to each site's respective homepage. And as for his other claims to fame, "Winning the Nickelodeon Super Toy Run in 1993" isn't related to the career of an aspiring humorist, and "Being verbally threatened by MLB All-Star Pitcher Scott Kazmir in 2004" is amusing but not notable unless it was the subject of a major news controversy (again, no sources).   The other content of the page ranges from trivial to non-NPOV. Fabricationary 03:26, 9 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep it. There are thousands on University of Texas students who are aware of his work and facebook page. I've seen alot of his blogs too. QWE123

 * Keep it. I am the author of this, and after talking to Admin Mariori, he and I discussed what needed to be changed. I will look for the exact sites from Dead Frog and Red America. If I cannot find them, then I will erase that in the next few hours/day. As for the Scott Kamir/Nickelodeon comments, I am wanting to give instances in which his alleged book will include.  How should I change this so that it will fit wikipedia standards? CollegeExpress 22:35, 8 Aug 2005 (CCT)
 * Comment Everything in the article must be verifiable from Reliable Sources. From there, editors can judge if there's enough to consider him notable. I can tell you that a blog and a facebook or myspace page have pretty much no value, as millions of people have them. After ignoring those elements, and the unverified/unverifable anecdotes, doesn't currently look like there's anything left. Fan-1967 03:49, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep. Although I have yet to hear of Fein, considering that I know Scott Kazmir attended Cypress Falls High School in NW Houston, and this guy is from Langham Creek High School in NW Houston, I'd say this page just needs some facts or sites that can back it up. Everything else, besides the Dead-Frog (never heard of it) and Red America portion, that should simply be deleted until there are some direct links that can support the claim.

To be honest, the members of Last Comic Standing are "up and coming" comics, and we seem to not be able to get enough. More than contributions to comedy, we get their entire life story. I consider this not-half bad, although there do need to be some changes made. - Bacardi6868 3:59, 9 Aug 2006

 * Delete. Article is very detailed.  Subject is not notable at this time. --Cassavau 04:03, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable and unverified. It sounds like his big claim to fame is that he has a funny blog. eaolson 04:17, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete, WP:VAIN, and as per eaolson, the only assertion of notability is a funny blog. -- Deville (Talk) 04:25, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as a failure of WP:BIO. --Hetar 04:25, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete as failing WP:BIO due to lack of verifiability from reliable sources. -- Kinu t /c  04:59, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Strong Delete. NN, and I agree with Deville as far as WP:VAIN is concerned. I'm sure this relates to my failed attempt at an AfD for Anna Svidersky, though.Mitch 05:46, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BIO. -- Gogo Dodo 05:58, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete hipster doofus --Xrblsnggt 06:28, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BIO and quite possibly WP:V into the bargain. If he's as funny as the article says, we'll be hearing from him again after he's become notable. Currently, he isn't. BigHaz 06:57, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete Looks like vanity. Medico80 07:26, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Sounds promising. Wait for someone else to write your entry. --Brianyoumans 07:28, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete, vanity, fails WP:BIO. --Ter e nce Ong (Chat 10:10, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BIO, and the sockpuppets/meatpuppets aren't winning it any supporters either. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  13:29, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete fails the usual WP:V, WP:SPAM, WP:OR et al WilyD 13:30, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BIO, WP:VAIN, and WP:V. Borders on WP:SPAM. I'm more than a little tempted to say Strong Delete because of the presence of sockpuppets/meatpuppets. But I'll be objective. Utterly fails WP:BIO, WP:VAIN, and WP:V. Scorpiondollprincess 13:46, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete. Possible speedy delete as veiled attack page (see e.g. the business about injuring his penis with zippers.)  Smerdis of Tlön 14:23, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, subject does not meet WP:BIO criteria.--Isotope23 14:41, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete Vanity page that fails WP:BIO. Wikipedia is not a free host, blog, webspace provider or social networking site. Shades of original thought and crystal balling and completely unverified or verifiable too. It is vanity-in-article's-clothing like this that reflects most poorly on wikipedia. --IslaySolomon 16:18, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * DELETE, OR ABANDON AFD AS A WORTHWHILE CONCEPT!: Utterly fails any criteria for inclusion under any guidelines. Richardjames444 16:43, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
