 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was   summary deletion per Requests_for_arbitration/Badlydrawnjeff. The subject may well be notable enough to justify an article but not a 100-word hatchet job in which two-thirds of the content is negative. Biographies should be a summary representing an individual's entire life - we cannot afford to be eventualist about this. No prejudice against creation of a new article compliant with the NPOV aspects of biographies of living persons policy. CIreland (talk) 14:42, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

A clear case of WP:BLP1E - a trader notable only for being barred and the son of a prominent politician and writer. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:22, 30 July 2008 (UTC)


 * STRONG KEEP Articles about people notable only for one event? "a trader notable only for being barred and the son of a prominent politician and writer." I think this is relevent because of his fathers criminal record - I find it informative, interesting and relevent. Chendy (talk) 23:49, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. He is notable, for the very reasons the nominator listed.--Dmol (talk) 09:19, 31 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep; enough coverage in reliable, third party publications to write a decent, verifiable stub. Swift may be the death of the asinine BLP1E conjecture. Skomorokh  12:55, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
