[edit] Johnny Lee Clary
Sorry but just because you do not like someone, that does not give anyone the right to delete information pages about that person, especially when they are a public figure that is in history. That is what Wickipedia is all about. TheKingOfDixie Non-notable hagiographic autobiography with no incoming links; see also Wikipedia:Requests for comment/TheKingOfDixie FRCP11 17:23, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete non-notable and definitely vanity. The article writer admits it here. IrishGuy 18:03, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Borderline notability, but fails vanity. -- MarcoTolo 18:31, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as proved vanity. -- Grafikm_fr (AutoGRAF) 18:32, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete this article as a copyvio/vanity, but the article topic gets enough Lexis/Nexis hits to make me vote Keep. Gamaliel 22:19, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete - as vanity. I have to say that he's notable enough, though. He was the president of the KKK! Regardless of the KKK's politics, that's more than notable enough. - Richardcavell 23:05, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, he was president of a Ku Klux Klan chapter. There are 158 of those, and his chapter doesn't appear to be one of the notable ones. -- FRCP11 23:17, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- I don't know what the details are. Regardless, I still think that he's notable. - Richardcavell 23:30, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

- Do Not Delete: Those that are voting for delete are nothing more than Neo-Nazis who are upset that there is an article on Johnny Lee Clary, who they consider as one of their top enemies. Typical of the Nazis and their supporters. -- This unsigned remark was left by TheKingOfDixie 16:35, 2 May 2006

- comment as you created this article and created it about yourself, it is understandable that you would want to keep it. What is not understandable, nor tolerable, is for you to make personal attacks to and about others on Wikipedia.IrishGuy 18:54, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
- comment TheKingOfDixie has already attempted to alter this vote by removing comments he doesn't like. Check the history. IrishGuy 07:11, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
- comment Link to vandalism by TKOD on this page. Is there an administrator here? Why isn't this sort of vandalism grounds for an immediate block? We have a user who has never contributed anything positive, and regularly violates just about every Wikipedia rule and convention. -- FRCP11 14:08, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

- Delete How appropriate that I get to vote right after my arch nemisis TheKing :) j/k I am actually VERY surprised that he even came here to vote, go figure.Tom 21:26, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete 'Borderline' is the best description I've seen. The article is vanity. Shenme 02:01, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. This article is not written in an unencyclopedic fashion, suffering from the usual autobio problems: OR and POV. Someday, someone might write such a biography but they should start from a clean slate. Thanks to FRCP11 for nominating this, I've had the article on my watchlist for months waiting for this day. -Will Beback 08:02, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, poorly written vanity article. quadratic 05:04, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
