 * Strong Delete(e). Vanity, unverifiable, vote vandalism. He is a highly respected political speaker in Wisconsin ... at 17 years old. A &#1080; D &#1103; 01D  TALK  EMAIL  01:52, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)

 * Care to elaborate? (In other words, do you know something we don't?) AFAICT, this is run-of-the-mill high school vanity. The only fact I've been able to verify is that there is a student named Ian Marten that ran in some track meets for Cedarburg High. Subject's political activism is unverified and very probably unverifiable. A &#1080; D &#1103; 01D  TALK  EMAIL  02:59, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep, I saw a local newscast about this kid a week or so ago. No reason why wikipedia shouldn't get a jump on the lads page. Does need some wikification however. -SmarterChild3 09:14, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * It's worse than sockpuppetry, this is vandalism, voting under someone elses name. Sjakkalle 09:33, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as vanity. What's with the name "Ian(n)", anyway? Did his parents want to use a weird name or something?   &mdash; J I P | Talk 11:16, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
