 * Comment Wrong reason? Article states Matthew Simon Russell Palmer, born 12 May 1964, was the Dean of the Victoria University Law Faculty from 2000 until June 2006. One Night In Hackney 08:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - well, you could take [User:Dalejenkins|Dalejenkins]] literally and say he is arguing for all non-reality TV show contestants articles to be deleted. However, I think the more likely answer is that there are two Matthew Palmers around and an editor did not realise. --Midnighttonight (rendezvous) 07:01, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Actually I see what's happened here. Matthew Palmer was a contestant on UK TV series  The Apprentice and there's an erreneous wikilink in that article.  The Matthew Palmer being nominated doesn't even have an article.  One Night In Hackney 07:08, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 16:15, 3 January 2007 (UTC)


 * keep - notable. Not only Dean of Law, also a former Secretary of Justice, now at the Law Commission.  Also son of a former PM (and also Law Dean). --Midnighttonight (rendezvous) 03:45, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
