  • Keep and Stubify. While the article as it stands is no good at all, and the man is a very marginal case(and a complete kook), he does pass the "multiple non-trivial" test as evidenced by this very restrictive Google news archive search. Lobojo (talk) 13:44, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete: Dubious assertions; lots of factual uncertainties. Delete w/o prejudice for better article to be written. Yellow-bellied sapsucker (talk) 18:45, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

  • Delete looks like it was made to be the biography on someone's webpage. so it violates WP:NOT#WEBSPACE Doc Strange (talk) 14:28, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete I actually don't think he even passes the notability test. He has a significant internet presence, however, I don't see independent reliable sources covering him in a non trivial way. Even the hit cited about do not, to be, appear to qualify. Xymmax (talk) 15:09, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:BIO, violates WP:SOAP. Bearian (talk) 20:47, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep While the man does not get much coverage from mainstream sources that have written him off a priori because of the extreme nature of his lifestyle and claims, he does get a tremendous amount of attention from Christian groups all throughout the internet, making him very notable.
