[edit] Eric M. Jackson
article was created by the person himself for hyping purposes. does not appear to be a notable person or notable enough to be included in wikipedia Wikiyoman 00:51, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep The article's sound. The challenger is likely a political hack interning in the MOVEON local school board committee looking to make a name for himself (or herself--not that within MOVEON there's much difference). Of course, this could be wrong, and so we await for the anonymous poster to demonstrate his/her unbiased nature and pure intentions by listing for the Editors what must be a myriad of other article he/she has, without interest, challenged.

- Keep Once again, using wiki has a POV vehicle to wage what seems to be a political war is not within the keeping of our highest standards. These personal attacks are atrocious.
- Keep Claiming Eric Jackson isn't notable enough for Wikipedia is like saying Jimbo isn't important enough. You are attacking Jackson purely because he's associated with Rod Martin (other users: please see where this same user is trying to have Martin's article removed). You're on a personal rant and you need to be banned. Jawed3 05:02, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Wikiyoman seems to be systematically going after specific people. He has made Aman Verjee, Rod D. Martin, and Eric M. Jackson candidates for deletion, as well as removing key information from the Stanford Review article, all in the same night. It just happens that all these people/things are related in multiple ways, including doing a political book together. The lack of good faith is obvious, and this all-but-completely anonymous user has some kind of gripe with these people. As to this article, Jackson is obviously notable.

- Another comment: Jackson would be notable if all he'd done was be a vice president of PayPal (when it was a startup). Now he's also the publisher of the Minuteman book (Corsi and Gilchrist), which means he and his authors are in the news constantly. Get real. DelosHarriman 17:28, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep I think Jackson is notable as one of the major people behind PayPal as a startup. User: Wikiyoman's only contributions to Wikipedia are to remove content. 203.218.141.70 04:19, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
