Borderline notability (

*Delete: as an unreferenced BLP. I had tagged it for speedy under A7, after being unsure if it really qualified for G10. Certainly BLP violation. Toddst1 (talk) 16:09, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Marginally notable at best, the article is basically a life story of the subject, makes no mention of what it is that he is notable for. Also, counting myself, there's now at least two people confused by the Mein Kampf reference.

• Delete - it's a
  hoax. References to Mein Kampf and The Psychopathic God: Adolf Hitler, and a book about slaughterhouses by "A. Bullock"; there's no trace of the alleged book on Peterman by J. Toland, but note that John Toland and Alan Bullock have both written books about Hitler. In the text, "He graduated in the top 80 percent of his class" and "...Brazil where he first discovered the fascinations of cows"; and just look at the paragraph about "waterboarding" cows! If not a hoax, it just might be an attack page on a real "Forrest Peterman"; either way, it should go, and speedily. JohnCD (talk) 20:28, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply
