I can't find any reliable sources that even mention this person, much less discuss them in depth. Thus, this article is not verifiable, meaning it should be deleted. RileyBugz 会話投稿記録 22:49, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete No claim of anything and no sources. CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  22:52, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete and salt, fails WP:GNG. Theroadislong (talk) 23:17, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
 * delete does not meet GNG, ANYBIO, lacks significant coverage. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 23:29, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Addendum- reference added below does not address subject in depth. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 14:45, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. There was an earlier article, Tom Bolema (note better capitalization) with the same creator, deleted in 2010 — not per a deletion discussion, though, so that part's all right. But no reliable sources and it's clearly an autobio, compare the subject, the username, and the user's sandbox. Bishonen &#124; talk 23:45, 1 January 2018 (UTC).

 * Delete The article lacks any context.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:27, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
 * The creator seems to have tried to reference this article, for what it's worth. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 13:58, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment Looks a marginally notable person: no time to fix the article right now (and it needs to be moved to Tom Bolema, capital B) but these look interesting: elected Green councillor, former California Green Coordinating Committee member, prison library work, Organised concert including "The Butchers" at homeless camp (the 1987 LA Time article), retirement appreciation in San Quentin News.

 * Speedy delete This article does not meet the usual: WP:GNG, WP:OR, etc. It flaunts even the WP:BLP1E to a ridiculous degree. This does not an article maketh. Ventric (talk) 23:12, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment The original creator of the article is assumed by this editor to be the subject himself. WP:COISELF is obviously trodden upon here. If this article was written about his work in the penal system and his previous music/organizing experience added as additional biographical information, there may be an article here. I cannot find substantive changes he has made in WP:SECONDARY sources to support such an WP:AfC. This article should be deleted, and (perhaps) properly created with the subjects name as a proper noun: Tom Bolema. (The man didn't even capitalize his own name....) Users Bishonen and PamD nailed it. Ventric (talk) 22:49, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete no WP:RS covers this subject. Subject is not notable by any Wikipedia standards. Fails WP:ANYBIO, GNG, and BLP. -- Steve Quinn (talk) 04:33, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
