Fails WP:NOTE FlatOut 13:18, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Withdrawn by nominator - I accept the argument by Cullen328 that the most notorious are notable. FlatOut 03:42, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Strong delete. The subject is not notable. Vexnews may be, but the subject is not. There is little prospect for expanding the article due to lack of independent reliable sources. FlatOut 13:22, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep The sources already in the article are from prominent Australian media outlets, and show that the subject is notable. There is no basis for presuming that the article can't be improved, and it is an acceptable short article now.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  02:45, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment Certainly notorious, is that the same as notable? FlatOut 05:55, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, L Faraone  01:02, 15 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Reply The terms "notable" as Wikipedia defines it, and "notorious" as used more broadly, are by no means mutually exclusive. It is safe to say that most truly notorious people are notable and therefore worthy of Wikipedia articles. We don't limit our biographical coverage to upstanding citizens with unblemished reputations.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  03:07, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
