• Delete unless rewritten limited to notability Keep if rewrote limited to notability The critereon is multiple non-trivial mentions by independent sources. He has mention at BBC and Times - two equals multiple. The article sucks The article has nothing to do with his notability as underground explorer and is currently vanity spam, but that it no reason to delete Keep if rewritten such that the subject matter meets the inclusion threshold for the notable factors, per the two media articles. But this needs a complete rewrite! --Kevin Murray 18:06, 31 January 2007 (UTC) Updated. --Kevin Murray 01:58, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

    • Counter-Comment Per Wikipedia:Autobiography, under the section "Creating an article about yourself", writing an autobiography is discouraged but not prohibited. I certainly am skeptical about autobios, but if it qualifies in all regards, it may be legitimate. --Kevin Murray 01:06, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
