The article has very few sources, is of a contentious nature and disputed neutrality. Delete per WP:BLP. Localzuk(talk) 15:22, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Was Presdient of one-time nation Republika Srpska (I've never seen a nation president up for AfD before) and noted war criminal. The nom seems to have a content/POV dispute, not a notability one. --Oakshade 02:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
 *  Strong Keep Passes WP:BIO with flying colours. Note: I added the AfD notice to the article, since it hadn't been added there, which might explain why there aren't more comments here so far. --Lijnema 19:39, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Not so super sure anymore. Perhaps a delete and fresh start might be good, but wouldn't anyone who is POV pushing now find the article immediately again when it's re-created? Some kind of cleanup action would be nice, I think. --Lijnema 15:39, 4 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment I didn't realise any of it had worked... The tool I use to list things for AFD seems to have went crazy and messes things up. Anyway... My reason for listing this wasn't that the subject matter is non-notable, rather that deleting it and starting again would be a better chance of improving the article than trying to fight the pov warriors that would appear.

 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 12:44, 4 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep, obviously notable individual, clean up the article if that's what it needs. NawlinWiki 15:13, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, a former head of state/government is always notable whatever it is. Just need some cleanup and some NPOVisation. Ter e nce Ong 16:15, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per comments above - he's a former head of state! --SandyDancer 16:29, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. She easily qualifies as notable under WP:BIO; Bosnia and Herzegovina is a decentralized country and the presidents of its two component entities are clearly notable politicians. Deleting the entire article would not be an appropriate way to help achieve a neutral point of view; the article should be edited where it is rather than being taken out of service for remodeling. --Metropolitan90 22:07, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * speedy keep per above, & convicted war criminal frm recent war is notablity enough in its own right. re the pov dispute. delete & restarting will make no difference per above. deal with that issue thru mediating, locking etc yes its really boring but you will have to do that if you delete & restart. (grounds for WP:SNOW given nominator comments?) &rArr; bsnowball  14:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. AfD should not be used as a glorified "Cleanup" tag. JamesMLane t c 13:09, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
