Adam Mattis

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article is an extensive biography, but I cannot see how this person is notable. I cannot find coverage in independent third-party sources.  TN ‑  X   - Man  16:55, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete – I thank Mr. Mattis for his fine service to his country. In addition, Mr. Mattis seems to be a hard and dedicated worker.  On the other hand, sorry to say, as of today he falls short of our Notability guidelines therefore not eligible for inclusion in Wikipedia at this time.  However, we would welcome him here as an editor.  He seems to have a talent for writing. Best of luck to you. ShoesssS Talk 17:29, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: To the creator of this article: please provide the references mentioned in the discussion page: "He has also been honored by Georgia Southern University, the University of Georgia, and the United States Army. There are articles about him in the Army Times, Stars and Stripes, and other notable publications." I clearly can see how this person is noticeable (he is a real hero!) but references must be provided to meet Notability guidelines. I hope we can rescue this article.--Jmundo (talk) 19:13, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment - More than willing to change opinion once sources are provided and reviewed. Thanks ShoesssS Talk 19:17, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree with you ShoesssS. I am unable to find any sources on my own, but if there are some out there, this article would be good to go.  TN ‑  X   - Man  19:20, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Looks non-notable to me. A good soldier, but there are a lot of those. Brianyoumans (talk) 02:42, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not notable except for locally. Drmies (talk) 03:55, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete no outstanding military achievements, no other notable achievments. Is being honoured by a uni football team enough to confer notability? Somehow I don't think so. Totnesmartin (talk) 12:20, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
