Stuart Millson

Vanity article about a marginal figure whose main contribution seems to be writing letters. Replete with original reserach. Homey 02:58, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I vote Keep. It is irrelevant if Millson is noteworthy. The article sheds light on the politics of his times, and it should stay as long as it if factually true. Edwin Hale
I'm going to vote keep here as well. As per the Lauder-Frost article, the content is pretty shabby but the subject is notable. CJCurrie 03:02, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: no, this guy isn't noteworthy. An entertaining article, but NN and POV. --die Baumfabrik 03:53, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete not as notable as Lauder-Frost, who is only marginally notable Bwithh 04:10, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Millson is, in his way, a prominent political figure who has become a mouthpiece for a certain movement and way of seeing the world which feels that it has lost the other representation it once had. I don't think the article is biased; it is a reasonable and balanced description of the man's views. RobinCarmody

Delete, doesn't seem to meet Wikipedia:Notability (people). - Motor (talk) 09:50, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: The man is a political nonentity, and has not published any significant body of work either. "Vanity article" seems a fair assessment. --Stephen Burnett 17:26, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Burnett appears to be a sock-puppet. 81.131.91.205 13:31, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete It is self-aggrandising self-serving rubbish. Millson is not a notable politician in any sense of the word. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.3.163.184 (talk • contribs) .
This delightful comment placed by either Chilvers or his friend Williams. 213.122.134.193 07:19, 6 June 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Keep. He is notable on the right-wing of British politics. David | Talk 10:34, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- Doesn't meet WP:BIO in my opinion. Reyk _YO! 20:18, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: another target for User:Homeontherange. Millson is a very well-known and prominent figure on the British respectable Right. Sussexman 08:09, 6 June 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Keep: as per the last extremely accurate statement. How do such fantastically biased Users get any kind of status within Wikipedia? How many more articles will be attacked like this? 81.131.91.205 13:31, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  - Just as "anon" as you. Having a funny pen name tells nothing but your targets and comments on Wikipedia tell us everything. 81.131.77.243 20:51, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: censorship sux, just cause someone doesn't like it, doesn't mean the rest should suffer— Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.231.166.82 (talk • contribs) .
Keep, censorship by bigots is never an attractive option. Brin— Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.110.79.47 (talk • contribs) .
Keep: Wikapedia should realise that people in politics can often suffer politically motivated attacks, included concerted attempts to delete them from Wikepedia. Please don't. - Chris Cooke — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.78.204.62 (talk • contribs)

Keep: Wikipedia should realise that people in politics can often suffer politically motivated attacks, including concerted attempts to delete them from Wikipedia. Please don't. - V. Clark,B.A. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.197.174.48 (talk • contribs)

Comment Although I personally favour retaining the article, I do not believe that many of the preceding "keep" votes are legitimate. CJCurrie 21:24, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. If the fellow is notable, the article doesn't tell me why. I'm glad to be persuaded otherwise. As an aside, I'm very disappointed in what I presume is an outside attempt to stuff the ballot box, which in any case won't work. --William Pietri 23:15, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Nobody asked you for your pompous opinion. Pretty obvious from your profile that you are the kind of nobody who thinks his words are worth their weight in gold. The only ballot-stuffing round here is coming from politically-motivated malignants and their sockpuppets.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Mike Keith Smith (talk • contribs)
Keep: Millson is a significant figure on the radical right of British politics. <<removed unnecessary personal attack on nominator -- Humansdorpie 13:33, 7 June 2006 (UTC)>> Mike Keith Smith 00:06, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: As with Lauder-Frost and Smith Millson is clearly being targeted by people who want to hide the truth about the capitalist-far right alliance. You only have to read Searchlight to recognise that Millson is one of the leading far-right intellectuals formerly allied with Jonathan Bowden who now heads the BNPs think-tank. General Kongo 10:04, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep* Whatever you think about his views, he is someone who has made waves, and merits inclusion by any objective criteria you care to mention. Why are liberals only liberal up to a certain point?62.56.69.250 10:58, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

-* '''Keep''':  Millson is a significant figure on the radical right of British politics. Interesting to see how the same malignant dwarfs - accompanied by numerous sockpuppets - who have never achieved anything in their pitiful lives rove from article to article maliciously denigrating those who have achieved victories in the areas of free speech, litigation and anti-establishment activities. The spiteful activities of the malicious anonymous coward 'homeontherange' will be reported to Wikipedia authorities, as he/she is clearly trying to destroy the utility of Wikipedia to suit his/her narrow political purposes. a fact correctly identified by Robin Carmody, who is a British left-winger and has no political sympathy with Millson [[User:Mike Keith Smith|Mike Keith Smith]] 00:06, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
