James McGibney

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable BLP. Some of his websites might be noteworthy, but he's really only gotten press because of those sites and his legal conflicts, not much of anything reliable exists about him. Going deletion instead of merge due to the lack of a relevant target. Thargor Orlando (talk) 12:32, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

I understand the concern. However, perhaps the validity of McGibney's entry should not be based on his entrepreneurship per se but the legal case with Hunter Moore (who has an entry btw). It was the first case involving defamation via Twitter. Arguably, this case could very well be precedent setting. . Admittedly, I am not nearly as experienced as most contributors, but doesn't this constitute making McGibney "notable"? or at the very least, his "action" is "notable" right? With respect, I am an offering an alternative view I see as pretty legit. Thanks for reading. TheYamMan (talk)
