The result was Snow delete: Given the principle that WP:BLP demands we do no harm, there is an imperative not to allow such an article to remain when there is a very clear consensus to delete it, therefore the usual 168 hour wait is not appropriate. --RexxS (talk) 00:30, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NFRINGE — it's documentable, but there isn't enough to indicate it's sufficiently noteworthy to warrant a stand-alone article. We're not here to make a page for each thing that drops out of Alex Jones' mouth. The topic could potentially get a sentence or two in another article, but I'm doubtful we'd need a redirect from here to there. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 16:36, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete or merge into Michelle Obama/Alex Jones? Lajmmoore (talk) 17:45, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * delete as fringe WP:BLP slanderfest. Possibly Alex Jones's article could be saddled with this yet-another-example of the kind of baseless crap he spews out, but there's every reason for this not to be its own article. Mangoe (talk) 17:49, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Striking as it happens irrelevant outcome possibility, Mangoe (talk) 21:57, 17 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete As above. Even if there are sources that X person said Y about Z, Y does not merit a stand-alone article as a general rule. Until other discussions start about Y, there isn't enough to demonstrate notability.  When X is Alex "lie about any and everything" Jones, it becomes even less notable.

 * Delete as per all the above. Possibly mention at Alex Jones, do not mention at Michelle Obama yet. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 19:30, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per BLP/UNDUE; is already given a sentence at Alex Jones which is all it needs. Crossroads -talk- 20:11, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep WP:NFRINGE really only states if a conspiracy theory has to meet WP:GNG. This conspiracy theory is well documented in reliable sources, it's not like its just on Alex Jone's site. Also this conspiracy is not just by Alex Jones, Joan Rivers promoted it. Even if it was only by Alex Jones, it still would meet the threshold of GNG.

 * A one-off joke is different to a repeated conspiracy theory. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 21:29, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Exactly. And, for that matter, we're not here to document every tasteless, deliberately "edgy" attempt at humor that makes a momentary splash in the "Celebrity News & Gossip" pages. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 21:45, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. This could easily just be a single sentence in the Alex Jones page. ser! (let's discuss it). 23:34, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete I think that ser! has it exactly right: if it needs to be in the English Wikipedia at all, then it can be one sentence in Alex Jones' biography.  WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:27, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
