[edit] Ben_Day

Ben_Day (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

The subject fails to meet Wikipedia's notability criteria for Biographies of Living People, has been subject to constant problems with vandalism and contains information copied and pasted directly from radio station websites which are copyright MNA Broadcasting.

• Question: if this person isn't notable, why did you create the article? -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 16:21, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

• Answer: at the time of creation, I was unaware of the criteria -- Benjday (talk)

• Weak keep - although the *Early years* and *Other activities* sec. are inadequately sourced. Please see WP:BLP, esp. Wp:blp#Dealing_with_articles_about_yourself. I'll hold my !vote, for now. --Evb-wiki (talk) 16:27, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

• delete per precedent over many months of WP:BLP. Person is of borderline notability, and if it is him forming the AfD, he wishes the article to be removed. For cases of borderline notability, wikipedia now usually complies with the subject's request at an AfD.Merkinsmum (talk) 21:18, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per author/subject's request. If notability were stronger I would vote keep even given the requeest, but as it is, there's no harm in doing as Mr. Day has asked. Xymmax (talk) 22:57, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
• Delete subject has requested, and meets the criteria for deletion :-) Stwalkerster talk 14:22, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
• Delete for reasons noted by Merkinsmum and Xymmax. CKarnstein (talk) 15:35, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
