- Delete as an obvious coat rack. If someone in the future wants to make a neutral, well-sourced, and verifiable article, they can do so without this mess. *** Crotalus *** 19:05, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep, pending the removal of the second and third sections and the addition of sources to the intro. It appears that the subject is plenty notable by himself, and so there's no good reason to delete the article. The coatrack issues can be handled by pruning (i.e. removing) the second and third sections of the article while leaving the intro intact. --lifebaka (Talk - Contribs) 20:35, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- C1818 (talk) 11:19, 25 December 2007 (UTC) I have been following the discussion about this article for some time. Unfortunately I believe that the editor Eleland is introducing his own bias. His strategy in this and his other editorial endeavours is simultaneously both sophisticated and simple. Unable to objectively refute particular statements that he personally disagrees with, he simply says that the source material itself is not reputable and thus so is anything derived from that source and anybody who uses it. Whilst it is certainly necessary to question all sources, he does not question the sources that he agrees with and seems not to like any form of minority opinion, no matter what its merits may be. In this case, Mr O'Loughlin has a public and demonstrable record of editorial bias in his writing and this represents an essential style of his work that needs to be noted in his biography. This article should NOT be deleted and those that disagree with objective and verifiable evidence indicating Mr O'Loughlin's work is biased toward one side should present their case.— C1818 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- NOTE: An extensive (and largely off-topic) digression by an anonymous user has been refactored to a subpage. *** Crotalus *** 11:53, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
