Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Todd J. Rathner

Rationale?
I'm not clear why a well cited page on a public figure and board member of a major national non-profit organization would be nominated for deletion. The only thing that springs to mind is a violation of the pillar of neutrality. Can anyone offer a rationale here? Mvpel (talk) 01:45, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Same reason they listed it with project terrorism and skipped project firearms.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 01:55, 27 June 2016 (UTC)


 * The rationale is listed in the nomination. "Everybody knows who he is" is not WP:N. MSJapan (talk) 02:03, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Nobody said that, MsJapan.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 02:05, 27 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Then what is being said? One user can't understand something that is clearly stated, and another is claiming bias because he thinks a WikiProject should do what he wants when it's not in their scope. MSJapan (talk) 02:10, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I guess irony is lost on some folks. Let me see if I understand what you are saying. You think an article about a Director of the NRA and Lobbyist for the Second Amendment should be deleted without running it past the members of the firearms project (because obviously they would disagree with your assessment), but think this article is within the scope of terrorism? Will you add Spa templates to encyclopedia users who agree with you, too? So much for any allegations of neutrality.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 02:19, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

Canvassing going on
Woah, it is clear that there is some sort of canvassing going on in this AfD. And usually if there is canvassing, it strengthens my view that the person is not notable but is trying to use Wikipedia for promotion. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 02:50, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
 * If there is canvassing going on, it should be investigated.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 04:13, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh, there certainly is. Users with no other edits and users with multiple-year-old accounts with under 50 edits are coming out in droves all of a sudden. MSJapan (talk)
