[edit] Takis Fotopoulos
Like the things he links to at the bottom of this page, which reads like a resume with a legal threat at the end, with links to other nn articles related to him that were deleted. Let's get rid of this vanity page as well. Delete karmafist 00:25, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Inclusive Democracy is definitely notable, so I think this guy is, too. - ulayiti (talk) 02:15, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

- Keep We'll write about you whether you like it or not, thank you very much. This article contains verifiable, notable information. Ashibaka tock 03:46, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - 12K Google [1] is pretty notable. I guess just make sure it stays npov and there's not any unverified stuff or potential slander in there. Blackcats 04:41, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. I see nothing wrong with this page. - CorbinSimpson 10:20, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Strong Keep - as per those above. --Chazz88 12:30, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. 'Vanity page' can be abused as a deletion category. Charles Matthews 13:16, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. While his individual projects may be of debatable encyclopedic value, the fact that he's pulled them together, and with whom, tends toward notability. (As long as his associates can stop violating WP:OWN). --SarekOfVulcan 22:58, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
ADDENDUM
Since yesterday’s announcement some of the main points we made in it have already been confirmed! Thanks to the technical work of some administrators who showed that they function without any political agendas against us but instead attempted to find out the truth, Paul Cardan (the disgruntled ex-member of the journal with a vendetta against us who was the main cause of the first AfD against Democracy & Nature through his repeated vandalising attacks against it) and User:DisposableAccount (who proposed the deletion of the successor journal to D&N and with the support of two (2) administrators managed to have it deleted), Llbb and Bbll (who persuaded other administrators to keep the page deleted) are all the same editor! [2] Meanwhile, other administrators still doubt whether the present announcement is a genuine Editorial Board announcement. Here is the proof: [3]
