Mastermind (Sparta)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

I believe this article should be deleted, because I cannot find any evidence that it satisfies WP:N. I nominated this article for speedy delete, but the speedy delete notice was removed by an uninvolved editor. Terrakyte (talk) 16:13, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Speedy keep This person is really important in Sparta. I think that makes him notable enough.  86.146.241.58 (talk) 16:26, 21 January 2009 (UTC) — 86.141.241.58 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Speedy keep Agreed. This person is really notable.  Melvinworks (talk) 16:28, 21 January 2009 (UTC) — Melvinworks (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Speedy keep Melvinworks and 86 are right. This person is notable.  With all these speedy keep votes, I think we should now close this discussion.  What does everyone else think?

 * Delete- The above user(s) aside, I see no indication that the subject meets any notability standards. Umbralcorax (talk) 16:34, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment This guy was a member of Sparta's senate, a Lieutenant, Diplomat, "Ghostbuster", Recruiter, and a member of the Spartan Propaganda Corp. He's also one of the hardest working members, and could be King of Sparta one day.  How could he not be notable? ;( 86.146.241.58 (talk) 16:38, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Yeah, few people have such credentials. Melvinworks (talk) 16:39, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Reply If he's as notable as you claim, then finding some real world sources that demonstrate this would be a convincing argument. Just saying "he's notable", isn't very convincing. Umbralcorax (talk) 16:45, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Yeah, he's notable. If we don't include him, who's next?  Hitler?  Takemcdown (talk) 16:46, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep Credentials noted establish notability. Referendem (talk) 16:48, 21 January 2009 (UTC) — Referendem (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Comment - all users !voting to keep have edited only this AfD and the article itself so they are likely to be puppets of one variety or the other -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:52, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm not a puppet.  Whatever happened to WP:Assume good faith, huh?  This encyclopedia has gone way down!  86.146.241.58 (talk) 16:55, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment On the subject of "whatever happened to AGF", let's please remember that using "speedy keep" at AfD itself usually "implies that the user thinks the nomination was in bad-faith". So let's all just stay calm. :) --DaveG12345 (talk) 18:33, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete - no claim to real world notability -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:03, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - sources to establish notability -- Whpq (talk) 18:26, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete I can't find anything even vaguely approaching a RS for him. Feel free to move this to keep if anything is found. Hobit (talk) 19:53, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Note — see Sockpuppet investigations/86.146.241.58. MuZemike 20:43, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * More likely meat puppets than sock puppets. Resolute 01:36, 22 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Speedy Delete So he's good at an online RPG? Doesn't meet WP:BIO, WP:RS, WP:N, oh and can someone finish the laundry? Wildthing61476 (talk) 20:47, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * See above WP:SPI case. MuZemike 20:48, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete No real world notability. No coverage in reliable sources.  No Wikipedia article.   Brag about your online exploits somewhere else. Resolute 22:04, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete (A7) — nothing remotely reliable shows why this online personality may be remarkable in any way. MuZemike 22:40, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete - This is ridiculous! This person has no real world notability, fails WP:NOTABILITY, and is now using sockpuppets to flood this AfD! It is rather routine to have a gaming or online profile immediately speedily deleted if no real world, reliable sources are provided, as they are mostly vanity articles. Scapler (talk) 04:01, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Wikipedia is not the place for children's games. Send all involved to bed without supper. JuJube (talk) 04:24, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - may be notable in this private universe, but not in the real world. JohnCD (talk) 11:57, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, what JuJube says, and no socks in bed either. Drmies (talk) 15:17, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete No sign of notability, should have been speedied.  Based on the amount of socking may need to Salt, too. Edward321 (talk) 15:41, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
