Paul Kadri

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Article on non-notable school superintendent, very similar to the case of Eric Ely that currently goes through its second AfD. In this case the reliable sources discussing the subject are even more limited, but there is a lot of noise on the web. One of the first Google hits is an attack website created by a student who started a court case against him. Looks like a WP:BLP1E case to me: There is simply not enough information available about the man for anything like a serious biography. The article is a WP:COATRACK for discussing one event.

 * Delete per the above. Local squabbles seen in a thousand school districts, even the "event" that this WP:ONEEVENT article covers isn't notable. Tarc (talk) 18:31, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, this gives massively undue weight to a single event and there is no realistic chance of sources coming up to rectify that. Guy (Help!) 18:54, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete: Event which constitutes the main body of the article has a much better article elsewhere. Little else of note (at present). Stephen B Streater (talk) 19:21, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

The sick thing is that there are two sides to this story, and only the side that serves to disparage Kadri is included. -- Rico  19:34, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. It's a BLP1E, coatrack pseudo-biography -- and isn't even well-masked. Since it's been this way since day one, and the Hornstine v. Township of Moorestown 'coats' serve to disparage its subject -- and the coatrack fails the harm test, due to undue weight -- it may be an attack page. (The existing page consists primarily of content that disparages the subject of the article, and there's no good revision to revert to.)


 * You forgot to mention SPA. Stephen B Streater (talk) 19:37, 22 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment: Hornstine v. Moorestown exists. It might be simplest to redirect the article under discussion there.--agr (talk) 19:52, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * That would be even more of an attack page! Stephen B Streater (talk) 19:53, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * So then the proper response would be adding to the top of the page, and notifying the indef-banned creator of the coatrack? What would happen then? --  Rico  20:10, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * A redirect to the event page is specifically what WP:BLP1E suggests. The article Hornstine v. Moorestown was originally titled Blair Hornstine and was changed to an event article based on BLP1E. Should we get rid of the Blair Hornstine redirect too? --agr (talk) 21:20, 22 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete as a clear violation of WP:BLP1E. Maybe the incident itself deserves to be covered in an article, maybe it doesn't. But what is clear is that this is not, despite the title, a biography of Paul Kadri, but rather a coatrack whose real subject is a lawsuit regarding the rights of the disabled. *** Crotalus *** 19:52, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. -- JN 466  21:16, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Fascinating NPR article about viral culture and this valedictorian brouhaha, but definitely this article should be deleted as Kadri is not rendered notable by it.--Milowent (talk) 21:29, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Undue weight... material better placed elsewhere... coatrack article... all sums to delete ++Lar: t/c 21:57, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fails WP:POLITICIAN, which is what an elected official is, and also we have to remember this is a school administrator, not a position who by its virtue thrusts the person into the limelight. There are privacy concerns to respect here, a concern only exaggerated by the fact that hundreds of students can edit this article during school time. I can only imagine the BLP violations they'll come up with. Shadowjams (talk) 07:58, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
