Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Perry Belcher (2nd nomination)

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. I deleted it the first time around. WikiDan makes a bit of an argument for a redirect; I'll create that and protect it against all-too hasty recreation: in its current state, A7 might apply (no legitimate claim to notability), for instance.

Note: the rationale for deletion and protection is that there seem to be only two options for this article (the history bears this out; admins can verify). It's either a puff piece (that's what I just deleted) or it's an attack page (one of the previous versions in the series I deleted yesterday, and the version deleted by DGG in 2008). That's not acceptable. Recreation can be done, but only if a proper biography is written--the creation of attack pages or puff pieces by SPAs needs to be discouraged.

Non-notable author with a few self-published books under his belt. Possibly notable as the legally-challenged CEO of Selmedica. Article should be deleted or left as a redirect to Selmedica. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 14:43, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
