[edit] David Rudiak

According to the article, "best known as investigator of the Roswell UFO incident and other UFO cases." I find some internet chatter on him but all of three Newsbank news articles:

  • Daily Times, The (Farmington, NM) - April 3, 2005 (passing mention as a speaker)
  • Albuquerque Journal (NM) - November 23, 2002 (passing mention halway through the article: "A UFO researcher, David Rudiak, claims a computer enhancement of the photo allowed him to read about "victims" and a crashed disk in the old memo.")
  • THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE, August 16, 1990 (not sure if that's him, but clearly not on UFO research; passing mention)

I can post the articles if anyone is interested in fleshing this out and sourcing, but if not it should be deleted. ~ trialsanderrors 22:48, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete. I'm not even sure why this article exists — maybe to avoid a red link in some other articles? -Amatulic 23:15, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete. Roswell is being investigated by thousands. Unless he's written a widely read book on it, don't consider this notable. JFW | T@lk 06:43, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete — I agree with User:Jfdwolff. There needs to be expanded WP:N for this particular investigator to stay, such as a published book. -- moe.RON talk | done | doing 02:45, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
