Prior discussion closed with zero community input, so renominating. Not appearing to be notable, few (if any) good sources to work off of (especially for a BLP involved with controversial topics), last two debates went no consensus although they were very underrepresented.

 * Delete for failing WP:AUTHOR and WP:BOOK. Qworty (talk) 06:11, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep, see 2nd nomination. --217 /83 06:26, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep, fulfilling WP:AUTHOR and WP:BOOK; clearly notable, sufficient sources 79.230.180.216 (talk) 13:43, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, decently sourced, meets author guidelines. I can see why people might want to remove his article, since his work is often found offensive; but controversy is not a reason to delete.    –  SJ  +  01:48, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep, clearly fulfilling WP:AUTHOR and WP:BOOK. There are also two German translated book editions available (see German Wikipedia). Wilutzky (talk) 09:05, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, J04n(talk page) 10:36, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

 Relist rationale: difficult to assess consensus in a discussion that consists of "fails AUTHOR...passes AUTHOR", please describe how it passes a specific guideline or why the references on the page are insufficient. This is a BLP so our standards should be high. Thank you, J04n(talk page) 10:42, 25 March 2013 (UTC) single edit IP
 * Keep. I think the sources in the article adequately cover him in substantial enough detail to pass WP:GNG. Unless someone can show how the sources are inadequate, we should keep it. Ducknish (talk) 21:34, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. I second that. It also seems like someone is pushing an agenda here. Four nominations for deletion in such a short time? You have to be kidding! 91.44.6.244 (talk) 00:23, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - Sufficient by WP:GNG also just passing on music and book but overall a keep. What is surprising is that the most substantial source, the Searchlight (magazine) 2008 article on neo-Nazi metal music which mentions Alex Kurtagić extensively isn't in the article footnotes. Has it never been added, or been removed? Well it's there now. Personally my instinct would be to delete every heavy metal fan who thinks nazi imagery is cool, but WP:GNG doesn't take account of how repulsive that notability can.
