Russ Dalbey
This article is a pointless advertisement with no sourced claims or neutral references. The article has also been deleted in the past for similar reasons.

 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 13:12, 4 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete; fails WP:SPAM, WP:BIO, WP:V. The subject of this obvious infomercial adspam has oodles of Google hits to various bucketshop make-$-now websites, but in five minutes of perusing I couldn't find a single hit to a reliable, unbiased source.  There's an assertion that he trained with the Olympic cycling team, but after directed searches I couldn't find any verification of that, or reference to for what group or college he may have raced competitively.  This article is the sole Wikipedia activity of User:Rileybuddha, its creator.    RGTraynor  13:57, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Running infomercials is not a sufficient claim to notability. Sources provided are less than reliable. Caknuck 19:27, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - spam, not notable, etc.--Svetovid 20:44, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Do Not Delete - There is no advertisement here. It is factual. The only issue I see is that it has been hijacked from time to time by negative comments — Preceding unsigned comment added by Piper2001 (talk • contribs) — Piper2001 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Delete - There appears to be no factural information at all and no reason for this page to excist besides the benfit of this guys company. I think this page was created and is being maintained by employees of this guys company. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Franchise42 (talk • contribs) — Franchise42 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Keep Sources: google news. Multiple and independent. Not spam and can be verifiable, just needs some TLC. --h2g2bob (talk) 17:23, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: Five of the six links there are press releases, which are specifically excluded in WP:V. The sixth is a "trivial mention," the article in question not being about Dalbey but quoting him with several other businessmen.    RGTraynor  04:31, 11 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - Only one article that's not a PR. The other is borderline trivial. Stellatomailing 00:21, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - promotion. IPSOS (talk) 02:43, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
