  • Delete - Heck, I could be a "radio personality" if I knew how to hotwire up my stereo & talk into a microphone! Delete... Spawn Man 00:39, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Haha Spawn Man! I read about you, and hey maybe you should hotwire up your stereo mate! After going thru more than 11 years on radio it's nice to see someone try to take to the mic just like that bro. :) Cheers!This unsigned section was created by Jeremyratnam.

Huh? 1) Where did you read about me? 2) The second sentence doesn't manke sense... My brain hurts... Spawn Man 02:14, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Oh! I get it now! Thanks for complimenting me. I'll vote to keep your article now... Spawn Man 02:55, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Jamiejulian tried to vote on this issue but this user's text isn't showing up. I tried to reformat to remove inadvertent html. No dice, doesn't seem to show up. Darkspots 03:41, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Response - There was a hidden text tag (dunno if there's some more formal name for it) that was causing anything entered below it to be hidden. Since the text associated with the tag was to the effect of "this is a joke" I removed it so votes would show up. Otto4711 03:52, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete obvious conflict of interest, also not notable. Otto4711 03:33, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Save Should give other people a chance. After all, we are only human. Play nice!!—Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamiejulian (talk • contribs) 23:30, 16 November 2006 Otto4711 03:52, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment Per the article, Jamie Julian is the subject's wife. For whatever that's worth. Is voting to keep your husband's COI article itself a COI? Otto4711 03:52, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • I'd say it's no different than the normal standard of not giving as much weight to an obvious meatpuppet's vote on an AFD. Wavy G 05:11, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Ok, now the fact that the subjects wife posted a comment asking us to play nice...I say Delete (and I was playing nice! ) Missvain 05:01, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Deletenn radio person. Edison 04:04, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

*Comment He is regionally known, it seems, from googling his name. But he's more of a staple on peoples blogs discussing him passing out Shakira CDs then anything else. He also seems to just be an "online dj" now which isn't very impressive IMHO. Blah Missvain 04:07, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete Non-notable subject and conflict of vanity...err, I mean, interest. Wavy G 04:58, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment response to Missvain - bro/sis I am NOT an on-line DJ, RAT RADIO was kicked-off recently as a project of pod-casting right after i left the world of radio [power 98FM] (11 and a half years.) I am currently taking a break from radio and may get back in a year's time. All these comments on 'deleting' have made me see the light on the phrase "don't ever judge a book by it's cover". *sigh —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jeremyratnam (talk • contribs) .
Jeremy, I hope you do see the problems with the article, and that it isn't something you should take too personal. --Lijnema 14:41, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, it's nothing personal. People are on wiki doing this all day we are just making things a little less-full so we can stock up on information that people need. We know you've had success with your radio career, and sorry you lost your job over a podcast, however, we catagorize it by notability, and unfortunatly, you are just not notable enough for Wikipedia (and it's nothing personal, it's just the standards of Wiki!) Missvain 15:46, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Thnx Missvain. Sufficent explaination unlike Spawn Man's. I will get to deleting the article. Cheers!
  • Gee thanks Ratnam. Your free to dlete your article... Spawn Man 04:18, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • No one asked you bro! Missvain and the others are by far more rationale than YOU are. You should just dlete yourself for starters...
  • I didn't say you asked me.The word is rational, not rationale. Also, I cannot delete myself. That would result in an out of body experience... Just winding you up... ;) Spawn Man 23:41, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Calm down guys, please. Lets keep things civil. --Lijnema 01:03, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
