Mike Corley (conspiracy theorist)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

We deleted this once at Articles for deletion/Mike Corley (I was the author back then, I merged the history back in). The problem, then as now, is that there are no reliable secondary sources. Corley continues to be a pain in the arse to many British-focused newsgroups, remains to this day a paranoid schizophrenic homophobic spamming bigot, but the only sources are things like Iain Hotchkies' Corley FAQ from the uk.* Usenet hierarchy.

 * Delete No independent references provided. (Hmm, or maybe I'm just part of the conspiracy to get him? ... Nah.) Dugwiki 22:00, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Although I can't comment on the quality of the article, there should be some reference to this phenomenon in Wikipedia. Having suffered the consequences over several years, I find it odd that anyone would look for "independent references". A quick search of google groups will verify the authenticity of the article. 21:20, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Interesting, but there are no reliable sources. If this man caused so much trouble, wouldn't he have been mentioned in the press or in published articles at some point? EdJohnston 07:16, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
