Blogger. Nominated for speedy as spam. Initially I actioned it thus. Then I noticed that the speedy tag had been applied by an IP and that the article has been around for seven years! How come nobody in this time has managed to add any evidence of notability? &mdash; RHaworth 12:53, 8 July 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Delete - the answer to your question is that there is no significant coverage in reliable sources or notability. Fails WP:BIO. Claritas § 20:18, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Nom de plume of a notable blogger.--SulmuesLet's talk 16:30, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep per Sesel's rationale in the first discussion. Calling this site, which is apparently updated once a day and sometimes not even that often, a "blog" is really stretching the term. Şłџğģő  17:48, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

 * Keep I have heard of this person so he is probably notable. The article is in very poor shape however. Borock (talk) 13:49, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Consider reading WP:IKNOWIT. Erpert (let's talk about it) 07:23, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Second relist rationale. The article is a BLP. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:01, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Will the closing nom note that the only "keep" votes have been saying WP:ITSNOTABLE and absolutely nothing else. Clear cut no-consensus at worst. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 03:50, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Suggo's/Sesel's rationale clearly goes beyond WP:ITSNOTABLE. --Schuhpuppe (talk) 13:20, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Was just thinking the same. It's kind of obvious people aren't looking at the first deletion discussion. Şłџğģő  17:04, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge The site seems to get name-checked enough in general accounts of the left-wing blogosphere to merit a mention here. We might therefore direct readers to a suitable article such as blogosphere.  Deletion would be unhelpful.  Colonel Warden (talk) 13:48, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
