[edit] Keith Berman

Non-notable individual, largely self-aggrandizing. RPIRED 00:43, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Wikipedia isn't a CV database or a place to promote one's business. Brian G. Crawford 00:56, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete as A7 for unnotable. --Mmx1 00:59, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy A7, doesn't seem notable. Royboycrashfan 01:01, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete --MacRusgail 01:02, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• "Do not delete."" This site links non-profit organizations at Harvard University to educational programs (Crimson Summer Academy), and has implications for national research (Harvard CAC). Information is factual, nearly devoid of adjectives (the stuff of "self-aggrandizing"). Not notably different from profiles of American businesspeople, educators. Signed -- deusyali
• Delete not notable. Bucketsofg 01:07, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete fails per WP:BIO. Also, the person is only notable in an article being listed for deletion. --Jay(Reply) 01:11, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, non-notable; fails WP:BIO; 212 unique Google results [1]--TBC^{??? ??? ???} 01:32, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:BIO. Not a speedy in my opinion, as president of organization is a claim to notability; just not one that is likely to gain consensus. Editor "deusyali" is advised that the purpose of a WP biographical article is not to serve as a portal to non-profit orgs whether notable or not. If evidence of notability is shown for this individual, article will need cleanup of non-encyclopedic resume material. Lacking such evidence, the article need not be kept.

  • User is advised that deleting other editors' AfD comments and votes (which happened while I was editing my previous entry) is against WP policy and is more likely to hurt your case than to help it. Comment added (while deleting others) follows; note similarity to deusyali's words. Barno 01:45, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Do not delete:

Portal to two important non-profits:

• Crimson Summer Academy
• Harvard CAC

Language is factual, few adjectives. Very similar to boilerplate language in American businessmen category.

• Delete as per all, and just like the last nom. --Deville (Talk) 02:53, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete there are portals for this, and it's of very specific, local nature, rather than encyclopedic Evillan 04:24, 28 March 2006 (UTC) .
• Delete per above. --Khoikhoi 05:43, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, nn. --Terence Ong 10:31, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per all --Ugur Basak 21:35, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
