Al Angrisani

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

30 days in the New Page Patrol queue because nobody  knows what to  do  with  it, so  I'm  offering  it for a decision  by  the community. The article has an extremely promotional tone and is peppered with  inline links to  his own  website. No inline sourced references. Notable or not, this is blatant advertising and would need a massive rewrite and many  WP:RS to  conform  to  policy. Article was posted by a single use account (WP:SPU).

 * Keep. Actually, the article was patrolled five minutes after creation by User:Ttonyb1, who added maintenance tags for multiple issues, and apparently overlooked the need to remove the article from the queue. The tags were improperly removed prior to this AfD nomination. This individual is highly notable, as indicated through the significant coverage discovered through the links provided above. That said, the initial editor that created the article is actually the co-author of the subject's book. While there is a conflict of interest, a conflict is not a criteria for deletion. The article needs a good copyedit, along with footnotes, but in my opinion, it doesn't warrant deletion. Cindamuse (talk) 14:02, 19 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep - Whatever sourcing problems there are, clearly a notable subject for biographic treatment and no apparent BLP concerns. Carrite (talk) 20:30, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
