Originally prod-ed by Mindspillage with the comment - "not notable, had 15 minutes of fame online for saying hateful things on the internet. brief mentions on Fark and mefi != articleworthy" Tevildo 19:33, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * My personal view is Weak Keep. He was certainly _very_ notorious in his time, and an encyclopedia should be an historical record as well as an overview of the present day.  But "notability" is always subjective. Tevildo 19:36, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Really, really don't like the guy, but he raised a stir, got himself a considerable amount of notoriety, and managed to get himself a place in the historical record. I'd rather he be forgotten, but this article belongs in Wikipedia. Captainktainer * Talk 21:34, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
