[edit] Scott Atkins
This was originally flagged as a hoax, because a Google search for the subject plus unique terms from the article produces no results. The author has since provided a single reference that identifies the subject by name, so it appears now to be a real person. Based on that, the page could be an attack page and possibly speedied. User also admitted to me in an email that he has no verifiable, third-party sources to back up his claims, meaning it's also entirely original research. Significant WP:BLP concerns also make me believe this should simply be speedied. Gromlakh (talk) 05:19, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
NOTE: It does not appear that this is related to the Scott Atkins who was previously deleted in another AfD. Gromlakh (talk) 05:22, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per nom and WP:SOAP. I have already tagged Glacier capital fund for speedy deletion because it appears to exist only to attack Atkins. Dethme0w (talk) 06:22, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
- I have just re-read this article. These accusations are serious and totally unsourced, and the article would require a complete rewrite to become objective. We cannot keep this article. I am going to tag it for speedy per G10. It would fail A7 anyway. Dethme0w (talk) 06:37, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
