Fringe theorist who has not been covered by any reliable third party sources, thusly fails WP:BIO Drdisque (talk) 00:47, 1 December 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Tim Song (talk) 02:02, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Gnews search confirms some coverage in secondary sources. That said, this being an intersection of WP:FRINGE and WP:BLP, two of our most controversial sets of rules, I think the article should definitely be cut down to what can be precisely cited and verified, to avoid trouble.

 * Merge AIDS origins opposed to scientific consensus would seem to be the place for this entry to go. There are other 'notable' conspiracy theories on that page and a short entry about Graves it would fit in http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Boyd_graves&action=submitseamlessly.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

I made a few little minor edits... and then looking into it further, it might be that this is an Attack page - the section title "Cashing In" would appear not to be the wording a proponent may use. --Shirt58 (talk) 09:27, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge to AIDS origins opposed to scientific consensus with no redlink to Mr Graves, and possible caution the Article originator.  At first glance, the article would appear to have been a stub about a possibly notable person who espouses an unpopular theory, article started by a WP:SPA.
