Attack page (speedy nomination reverted) citing a source that doesn't even mention the person (removed twice, see history); notability. -- Jeandré, 2008-05-11t14:20z
 * Delete. Was an attack article meant to disparage the subject, now a stub, either way fails notability requirements for an article. KleenupKrew (talk) 14:35, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable in its current state. Ecoleetage (talk) 21:26, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete. The article was created as an attack page which is certainly unacceptable. Currently the article is a stab with little useful info. However, the subject actually does appear notable. A GoogleNews search gives 137 hits, and it is clear (by doing further google searching) that he has been the subject of considerable controversy in the UK. If some-one took the time to expand the article in a neutral and balanced way, it could be kept. In its present state the article is of not much use. Given the BLP considerations involved and the history of the article being used for attack purposes, it is probably better to delete the article for now, unless someone puts forward a reasonable and more detailed draft.
