[edit] Jack Corley

The following has been copied from the talk page:

He's not a public figure, and he told me personally that the article is inaccurate. --Uncle Ed 14:03, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

I removed the speedy deletion tag you placed on the article, and reverted your blanking. Notability is established in this article, and thus it may not be deleted under our speedy deletion criteria. If you wish to nominate the article for deletion since you dispute the assertion of notability, then add the prod tag to the article, or list it on WP:AFD. _└^UkPaolo/_talk^┐ 14:08, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Jack Corley is a member of the Unification Church personally known to me (User:Ed Poor). He disputes the statements made by Ed as "inaccurate" (source: personal conversation, 4/25/2006). He specifically objected to being called a leader and to having the picture of him and Arafat - and how this info spread to the Russian Wikipedia.

I'm not going to go "3RR" on this, but I'm removing the information at his request, one last time. --Uncle Ed 14:42, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

AfD discussion

• Delete. No source information. Really Spooky 13:19, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

This nomination was incomplete, listing now. - Liberatore(T) 14:42, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Notability appears to be "once met Yasser Arafat". Pass. -- GWO
• Delete. '"Jack Corley" + Arafat' gets 21 Ghits (mostly from Wikipedia mirrors) and even '"Jack Corley" + Unification' only gets 82. Can't see how notability is established. Also see Joon Ho Seuk. -- Antaeus Feldspar 16:37, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete. Once met Yasser Arafat is not a claim to notability, and since there are not other claims a speedy deletion of this article is, I believe, appropriate.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Captainj (talk • contribs).
• Delete, looking through the history of the page... lots of statements (with not much notability)... and no references at all. Biographical articles with no references given AT ALL should be speediable, IMO. - Motor (talk) 18:11, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, unsourced and does not establish notability; so far as I can see his position is broadly comparable to that of a deacon in the Church of England who once attended a garden party at Buckingham Palace, and that would simply not be enough to justify an entry in an encyclopedia. — Haeleth Talk 20:33, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
