Obscure creationist. No third party sourcing. No indication that topic meets WP:PROF or WP:BIO. Google News/Books reveals almost no reliable coverage on this Walter Veith. Related article also up for AfD at WP:Articles for deletion/Amazing Discoveries. HrafnTalkStalk(P) 07:52, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete No 3d party sources I can find. EEng (talk) 16:08, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. While the sources may be ok for documenting non-controversial facts about the subject, they are primary (one is the subject's own web site, another an organization of questionable notability that the subject was involved in founding) and therefore cannot be used to justify the notability of the subject. So, there is no evidence that the subject passes WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:03, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Most of this article recounts his legitimate scientific work. However, WoS shows an h-index of only 8 and WorldCat shows holdings of his books as: "Diet and Health" at 166; "Genesis Conflict" at 9; and "Truth Matters" at 4. These results do not suggest sufficient impact by or current standards. Respectfully, Agricola44 (talk) 16:55, 11 January 2011 (UTC).
 * Delete. Fails WP:AUTHOR, WP:BK, and WP:BIO.  Qworty (talk) 03:20, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
