Contested prod. Vanity/advertising, notability not established. Katr67 02:36, 4 March 2007 (UTC)


 * weak delete: Only three advocates contributed, and they appear to be of one mind—I expect it's one person.  The article has stood for three months: plenty of time to develop notability—but hasn't.  The interesting bits are without references.  Removing the unverifiable bits would leave an empty article.  The reasons for weak is a) it seems like more notable information might be on its way and, b) there are a lot worse articles remaining.  Nevertheless, plenty of local businessmen would be at least as notable, but don't meet the intent of notability.  —EncMstr 03:04, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - in response to reason b), Other Crap Exists. --Action Jackson IV 04:14, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: Agreed, no excuse, which had little weight in weak delete.  —EncMstr 06:13, 4 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. Doesn't look like there are any reliable third party sources for attribution. Found this which seems questionable (probably non-independent). From his article, he seems like a nice guy, but "nice guy" doesn't satisfy WP:BIO. --Wafulz 03:24, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Nomen Nescio Gnothi seauton 03:42, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete if his two major achievements (beyond degrees and service) are redlinks, how notable can he be? That is, how can something not notable be proof of his notability? Shenme 04:14, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Good service, but not notable - yet. --Dennisthe2 07:30, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. I don't see the notability. Crunch 11:36, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, as is article fails WP:ATT Alf Photoman  15:45, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Doesn't meet BIO, ATT. - Denny 18:05, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. In all likelihood, a worthy community leader, but a philanthropist of chiefly local interest so far. - Smerdis of Tlön 18:56, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
