this is a vanity page, maintained by the subject himself under the user name "profg" Despaminator 17:18, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Losing Congressional candidate, otherwise best known for a website rankning ~1.7M on Alexa. Not much here. --Dhartung | Talk 17:47, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Getting 3% of the votes tells me that he was not a serious candidate and hosting a local radio show is also not a claim to notability Corpx 17:56, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete: No particular claim to notability other than a by-election at which he came in sixth with sixteen hundred votes. Six months as a local talk show host? A so-called "PhD" from a diploma mill? This is reaching, badly. RGTraynor 18:15, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per above. NHRHS2010 20:35, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. As the subject of this article, I was as surprised as anyone to discover it here; it is not a vanity page, for I did not create it. However, I have attempted to correct and update it as often as necessary, as I have noticed one particularly biased individual from North Carolina has repeatedly included incorrect and/or misleading information. In response to a couple of the comments here: I don't just have a website with low Alexa "rankning", that website is the homepage of the grassroots activist organization I head up, which currently has one million members/subscribers (email-based, not web-based). I was not just a "local talk show host," our talk show was broadcast nationwide and distributed even further via webcasting and podcasting. Again, I am fairly indifferent as to whether the article is deleted or not; however, I will continue to correct it if biased and inaccurate information is inserted. --profg 22:07, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete According to the article, he earned an ABD. Reminds me of the legendary title, so and so, B.A. (failed). DGG (talk) 05:55, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Addenda. I have to add, that the original reason that this article was recommended for deletion - that "this is a vanity page" - is actually not allowed as a reason for deletion (see Misplaced Pages:Articles for Deletion - 7.1 How to discuss an AfD - "The accusation "VANITY" should be avoided , and is not in itself a reason for deletion.") As a result, I recommend that the nomination should be withdrawn by the nominator. In addition, in response to the above comment, ABD is a valid title, as the Misplaced Pages link in the article itself shows. --profg 17:35, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
