 * Comment The article may be deleted for a number of reasons, but the subject not wanting an article is generally not one of them - we actually have had somebody who had an article on here, didn't want it, and successfully argued that he was not notable enough for one, but other than that, subjects who are deemed notable enough to receive Wikipedia articles can't really have them taken down simply because they do not want them. You will have to appeal to being too unnotable by Wikipedia's standards. Zeke, the Mad Horrorist  (Speak quickly) (Follow my trail) 07:43, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete You are 100% right about a subject wishing their own page removed not being a legitimate criteria. However, in this case I don't see it standing in the way of his wish being granted, considering that it never belonged here in the first place. Sources that merely convey existence rather than notability, not to mention the WP:COI issue with the subject being the author of an article about himself.

 * It's not that it would stand in the way, it's just something we would never take into consideration regardless. But yes, given that the article existed with numerous tags indicating problems, it is very likely to get deleted. As a matter of fact, since the nominator is the page's creator, he might be able to request speedy deletion per G7, although that will depend on how much of the page is merely his own content and not mostly added by anyone else. If it's not entirely his own work anymore, it will have to proceed to the end of this discussion. Zeke, the Mad Horrorist  (Speak quickly) (Follow my trail) 22:40, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
