This is an attack article on a living person. Subject is not notable as there are no news articles, books etc used as sources. Stratherian 05:23, 5 March 2007 (UTC) — Stratherian (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

  • o_O. Did you take a look at the references section? Keep, of course... —bbatsell ¿? ✍ 05:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep for example, there is this news article in the citations section, and everything else looks well-cited, with WP:N and WP:V websites of prestigious organizations. Furthermore, if everything in the article is true, I'd consider this to be a very notable person. Therefore, deletion concerns should just revolve around whether the citations are good enough.

  • Speedy keep. Bad faith nomination. CJCurrie 05:38, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • keep but it does seem to need a POV overhaul. DGG 05:40, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per the rest. Bi 05:58, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy Keep. Jimbo Wales was involved in the re-write of this article and as he's the founder of the Wikipedia project I suspect he views this individual as noteworthy. AnnieHall 06:24, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - seems good enough to keep. Guroadrunner 07:14, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - probable bad faith nomination, a tad POV, but nothing fatal. SkierRMH 08:41, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. The nominator is trying to delete all articles about people involved with the Canadian white power movement, regardless of their notability. Spylab 13:40, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Bad faith nom StuartDouglas 14:44, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep bad faith nom from probable sockpuppet Elizmr 19:27, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep article about a notable far right-wing activist (he worked/associated also with one of the country's most notorious Neo-Nazi), well sourced.--JForget 19:39, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy Keep possible bad-faith nomination. Subject is notable and article is well sourced. Not an attack page. --Nick—Contact/Contribs 00:07, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy keep per inappropriate nomination. The nom also AfD'd the Jamie Kelso article and improperly tagged a number of others for speedy deletion. I have left a note on h(er|is) talk page to try to clarify the issue in case this is just a good-faith mistake. -- Black Falcon 07:50, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
