[edit] John Alan Glennon

The entry is about me, and I would like to propose its deletion. Ucsbalan 02:01, 28 October 2006 (UTC) Note: this article has has a previous AfD discussion, which can be found here.

  • I finally got this thing formed correctly. Anyway strong keep. Unless it is an attack page, being the subject of the page does not allow you to get it deleted. -Amarkov babble 02:35, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Thanks Amarkov and Groggy Dice for fixing the deletion nomination. I suppose my concern is that since my "contributions" are currently on the fringe of notability, that the page would go unnoticed if it were vandalized. Ucsbalan 04:00, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
      • If you're worried about it, then you can always watchlist it. But deletion isn't meant to be applied to prevent vandalism. Sorry. -Amarkov babble 04:03, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy Keep. --Daniel Olsen 04:17, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Notable cave explorer/mapper. There's nothing negative or slanderous here. --Marriedtofilm 07:08, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Obviously any page on Wikipedia has the potential to be vandalized; by that argument hundreds of thousands of pages should be deleted! One thing that can help with visibility is creating backlinks where appropriate. --Dhartung | Talk 07:39, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep — I think it's the first time I see someone willing not to appear on WP :) I put it on my watchlist in case, anyway -- lucasbfr talk 17:03, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Subject is a researcher; however, does not appear to meet the WP:PROF guidelines. Nom, this link, Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard, may be of help to you. Derex 20:41, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Despite this subject being more than a professor and that WP:PROF isn't all that applies to this person, what about the subject does not appear to meet the WP:PROF guidlines? --Marriedtofilm 02:04, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. --Kf4bdy talk contribs 02:34, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep I see no evidence that Alan's research meets the standards at WP:PROF yet, despite the mentions of international attention in the Underworld Explorer (PDF) link from the article. I do, however, see evidence in the external links that he has been the primary subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the person. I therefore conclude that he meets the most important test of WP:BIO. GRBerry 23:40, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, with respect to the nominator, who meets guidelines for WP:PROF and WP:BIO. Yamaguchi先生 06:35, 1 November 2006
