Zan Perrion

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Nomination of page for individual who appears to have little notability and appears to be have been created for self promotion. He is involved in the "pick-up" industry which is notorious for unsubstantiated promises of success for men with the opposite sex and for shameless self publicity in an attempt to make profits.

The referencing is extremely poor and no convincing material is available to suggest this page is notable.

Not only is the topic seemingly non-notable, but it also appears to exist only because of multiple editors and should be deleted as per WP:SOAP

 * Delete - I don't know if there is a policy on this but this articles references opinion rather than fact - which take such lionize the subject with such positive sentiments that the they not only create a WP:POV issue as well as being highly unreliable WP:RS. It is also just as possible that others could voice opposing opinions - but since this is a soap box - it is not likely these will be represented here. I believe this article also has WP:COI issues OrenBochman (talk) 19:49, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep: lik it or not, the subject passes WP:GNG:, , , . If currently the article sounds promotional and/or there's a supposed COI, this is just an editorial issue, it could require a cleanup or even some rewriting to be as much as possible neutral... but AfD is not cleanup.
