[edit] Saniel Bonder

Not notable. Richard W.M. Jones 23:02, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, a borderline A7 speedy. -Splash 03:06, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, Certainly to be expanded. Bonder is/was a longtime devotee of Adi Da Samraj, and I would like to see more info on him, not have the article gone ! Intersofia 05:27, 19 August 2005 (UTC) Note: simple Google of "saniel bonder" yields over 1000 hits

As was pointed out on the talk page, this guy is very good at self-promotion, but this article is still not notable. I get far more hits on Google than this person, but I'm definitely not a candidate for a Wikipedia article. Richard W.M. Jones 09:02, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Is the article not notable, or are you saying that Saniel Bonder is not notable ? If the article seems a little light, it is. It's a stub. That's what stubs are. They need further information, etc. But clipping them because they are small is IMHO not the way to go. I have taken note of Bonder a while back, and think it's great that someone commenced an article on him. I hope that the existence of the stub will invite more people who know about him to contribute. I invite you to take note of him so your point of view becomes that he is notable.

• Keep, of course. Published author noted by bestselling authors Deepak Chopra and Ken Wilber. Controversial enough for his sixth google hit to be entitled "Saniel Bonder: Deluded And Brainwashed Scribe For The Great Da" Formerly Adi Da's official biographer, now apostate. Richard W.M. Jones' fame or lack thereof is irrelevant. --goethean ॐ 14:45, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
