Does not meet Wikipedia's notability criteria, and contains essentially original research that cannot be corroborated with reliable sources. Melt core (talk) 12:03, 27 October 2014 (UTC)


 * He is enough notable, the problem is the current article.--Sageo (talk) 07:23, 28 October 2014 (UTC)


 * There are no coverage of this person from any reliable source. Per Wikipedia notability criterions, this person has not received significant attention from independent sources to be considered notable at all.


 * Additionally, I just noticed that the article is primarily maintained by user Flying Pete, which is either the subject himself or someone very close to him (see October 7th 2014 update). There is a conflict of interest/self-promotion situation here.--Melt core (talk) 21:17, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment - This is one of those cases where I look for sources and there appear to be a lot, but upon closer inspection most seem to have some connection to Fekete. Holding off on a !vote for now, but could someone interested to keep the article provide a shortlist of the best independent sources here? --&mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 21:53, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NUKEANDPAVE. If he's really as notable as Sageo claims, then creating a new article citing proper reliable sources would be easier than trying to repair all the problems with this version. Bearcat (talk) 07:48, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, NorthAmerica1000 07:59, 4 November 2014 (UTC)



Someone would have come up with at least some reputable sources on Fekete by now. I think we should move on with the deletion.--Melt core (talk) 11:51, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Appears not to pass WP:PROF for his mathematics work and the sources do not support a pass of WP:GNG for his WP:FRINGE economic theories. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:37, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
