Nandor Vadas
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

This article was taken into AfD shortly after its creation several years ago, but the AfD was procedurally closed. Nobody ever bothered to relist this particular individual. Magistrate judges simply are not notable by virtue of their position and there is nothing of significance that he has done in office that would grant notability. None of his other federal positions grant notability. Delete. Safiel (talk) 05:52, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Neither his position as magistrate judge nor prosecutor is inherently notable (see prior AfD for basis). There is nothing in the article, or that I can find on my own, to suggest any notability in either of these roles; there are a few news articles where he is mentioned, but only for the purpose of identifying the source of a ruling, etc. He's referred to as the assistant prosecutor in at least one published case, U.S. v. Ailemen, 986 F.Supp. 1228 (N. D. Cal 1997), but it's just a routine identification.  Unless anyone is aware of and can document anything special in his career as either MJ or prosecutor, or some other basis, this is just an ordinary guy. TJRC (talk) 21:46, 28 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete per nom. WikiProject United States courts and judges/Notability, the de facto notability guideline in effect for judge in the United States, states: "Magistrate judges and bankruptcy judges are appointed by the court of the district in which they sit. Such judges are not inherently notable, but holding such a position is evidence of notability that can be established by other strong indicia of notability". No other strong indicia of notability is present in this article. bd2412  T 13:56, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
