Nigel Tollerman
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log )

Person of VERY questionable notability, (as established in the first AFD for him) Most references are "in passing" and do not meet WP:GNG as they don't constitute significant, in-depth, independent coverage for this subject. Wuh Wuz  Dat  17:39, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - In the world of wine, and certain in the world of wine consulting and sommeliers, Tollerman has done nothing of significance to establish notability. As a wine editor, I would say there are a lot of Master Sommeliers that have more claim to notability per WP:BIO and WP:GNG than Mr. Tollerman and there are a lot of Master Somms that also don't have sufficient claim for notability. Just being a wine consultant to a big name winery or head somm at a hotel is not notable. There seems to be some vanity vendetta on the part of Tollerman or his associates to have an article on Wikipedia as evidence by it repeated recreation without any change in his notability or status. Quite weird. If he wants to get on Wikipedia so badly maybe he should write a book or rob a bank (granted, the bank robbery alone probably wouldn't pass WP:BIO but at least it would help his case).

 * Delete - per Agne27 and my previous vote on 7 June 2010. (Wouldn't this simply had been a case for db-repost? Surely you don't get to delete that - you would have to request a deletion review instead.) In any case, no indication of notability, nothing dramatic that has happened in the last half year. The bar for notability is not lower because someone consults, but experience indicates that the risk of articles for non-notable consultants being created is higher than for non-notable non-consultants.
