Nicholas Langman
Wikipedia is not a news report. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 12:34, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Please do not delete this entry - it is important that this name be made public because the British authorities are trying to conceal it.


 * Weak Keep if more information can be added, otherwise delete. - FrancisTyers 13:09, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Since then, more info has been added to this entry. --Vodex 19:05, 5 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete, I can find the mention that the newspaper in question published a name, but not any information that this actually is his name. If someone can verify it, change to keep. - Bobet 13:16, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Since then, this person's identity has been verified. --Vodex 19:05, 5 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete as lacking reliable sources. Very few links, some to absurd Diana conspiracies (why do people have such a hard time believing that a drunk driver crashed?  It happens every day!) Remember, people, There Is No Cabal! Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] AfD? 14:01, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I still don't see it. There should probably be an article on the kidnappings, but not on one person stated to have been there at the time.  Do we have other articles for bystandeers? - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] [[Image:Flag of the United Kingdom.svg|25px|  ]] AfD? 20:07, 5 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete By all means have an article on the purported kidnappings. But by the nature of the supposed D-Notice it seems impossible to link these to Nicholas Langman     Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  14:48, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Since then... see above. --Vodex 19:05, 5 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:V unverifyable. --Pboyd04 16:08, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep Here is the Greek newspaper article published on 25 December 2005 Stavros-Athens
 * That's a picture of something that mentions MI6 certainly. The red box is hard to read - looks something like Atpna K Lakman.  Seems inconclusive to me.   Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  21:16, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep Other Greek press report the same name these days, see for example from Ta Nea http://ta-nea.dolnet.gr/print_article.php?e=A&f=18426&m=N09&aa=1 as to the person's name, and some image of a memo from the same article, http://ta-nea.dolnet.gr/print_article.php?e=A&f=18426&m=N09&aa=1, shows the original English spelling of the name. I agree additional information beyond the name should be included to keep this article. ArielGlenn 23:40 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Langman has been named in a national British newspaper (The Morning Star), one of the rare occasions where a British media organisation defies the D-Notice system and admits to having done so. He is also reportedly the subject of a criminal complaint in Greece and the complainant intends to seek his extradition. Rugxulo 15:02, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep as an article, but add in additional information about him and NPOV the allegations. --Vodex 00:55, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Serious allegations against him related to an important event, the July 7 London bombings, very little other information about him available Chaikney 19:24, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep British newspapers have now named him, in defiance of the D-Notice Stavros-athens 18:18, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep now that he has appeared in the press. The issue of information obtained by torture/maltreatment in the GWOT is highly notable. --Squiddy | (squirt ink?)  20:23, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Too much evidence to remove. Story is not false. Verified in English Media. As shown in links on page.
 * Comment The incident is clearly notable but personally I've yet seen nothing that links this persons name to it. None of the article links appear to and I don't see it in ArielGlenn link either.  Could someone spell it out for me please?   Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  21:07, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep but it should also be wikified in a better way, shouldn't it?!? --Angelo 00:59, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
