I have idly checked this page numerous times over the last few years after running into the website VexNews online, which is little more then a blog for political attacks from the far right. From what I can see of the editing pattern here it looks like the original users that created this and the related articles was the actual owner of the site VexNews, who was promptly banned for disruptive and COI edits. Since then, any attempt to make constructive changes to these articles, which has been few, due to the limited significance of the article, have been met with an eventual IP edit that reverts to the same content the original 'owner' submitted. I think the safest option now is simply to delete this and deny this owner the notoriety he clearly desires. Senor Freebie (talk) 09:26, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment it's mentioned a lot in the Australian press, but usually as a source for stories or in more general pieces about the low standard of political debate. --Colapeninsula (talk) 15:00, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Redirect & Merge any sourced content to Andrew Landeryou. Nothing notable enough for its own pagespace; apparent promotion. Fails WP:WEB. Target article not particularly notable either and also apparent long-time COI promotion. BusterD (talk) 12:27, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
