Ulric Gaster Williams

Seems to fail WP:BIO. I think it is irresponsible for Wikipedia to have a WP:BLP on this subject since there isn't really much to go on by way of reliable independent sources we would need to write a biography on a naturopath. Ireneshih (talk) 06:51, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep, this is not a BLP - the subject died in 1971. As Stuartyeates has shown, there are numerous sources available. With few exceptions, people included in the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography are notable.- gadfium 20:43, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment: as discussed in Articles for deletion/Nigma Talib this appears to be part of a campaign by the nominator to rid Wikiproedia of WP:I DON'T LIKE IT material. Stuartyeates (talk) 03:51, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment: User jps (talk) made the nomination for deletion of Nigma Talib, whereas this nomination of Ulric Gaster Williams was made by user Ireneshih (talk), who happened to copy/pasta the some of the text jps (talk) used there to then nominate Urlic and four other naturopaths. This is weird because Ireneshih (talk) had previously accused others of a supposed campaign to target naturopaths as unacceptable (which there isn't) and then went ahead to target naturopath articles him/herself.
