BLP with lots of complaints from the subject. basically is just about notable through pornographic movie scenes but there is little or no independent coverage and reliance on primary detail from the subject seems excessive.. Off2riorob (talk) 18:26, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per the WP:PORNBIO argument discussed in the last AfD demonstrating notability. Subject seems notable, and the fact that the subject sees fit to abuse us until we remove the article per "his rules" is no reason to ignore our own policy. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 19:18, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I'll be darned if I can figure out what the subject feels is "false libel" in the article. Keep per GiftigerWunsch. Beyond My Ken (talk) 19:20, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
comment - In my experience subjects only get upset when they dispute content within their article here at wikipedia and we do need to listen to such issues subjects may have. Personally I am not so inclined to support the position that says, damn disruptive subject of one of our articles why should we let him attempt to tell us what to do, this is fine if you can show to me quality wikipedia reliable citations that will allow a decent cited biography to be written, in this case that appears to not be the case at all. As regards the claim as per previous AFD meets WP:PORNBIO , this guideline has changed a fair bit recently and its value is disputed, also the subject doesn't exactly fly through porn bio as it exists now, basically have we got decent wikipedia reliable citations that cover the subject in a depth that will allow us to write a decent BLP, imo no is the answer to the question.

Delete The fact that the subject thinks we're printing libel about him is irrelevant to the actual notability. That said, I don't see any reliable sources here, nor do I see significant third-party coverage. The sources provided are the IAFD (which is no more a reliable source than IMDB), the subject's own blog, and an advertisement, which can't be used to establish notability. Subject fails WP:GNG. Pornbio is currently under review and in any case it does not negate the basic WP:N requirement for multiple, reliable, third-party references that cover the subject in significant detail.

Delete No significant coverage in reliable sources, doesn't meet the notability guidelines. Lustralaustral (talk) 00:42, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Subject won an AVN award which the nominator had removed from the article because the reference link went dead. He should have put the deadlink tag instead of outright removal of the evidence of notability and then later afding the article without disclosing this.

Delete No significant coverage in reliable sources, doesn't meet the notability guidelines. He iro 04:26, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
~~Well, it's not at all suspicious that this !vote uses the exact same phrasing as an account with barely more than 50 contributions...~~ Note: this !vote is worded in an identical manner to the !vote by Lustralaustral, who has little over 50 contributions since starting to edit. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 05:40, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me? I copy and pasted it because it said exactly what I needed and wanted to say. ~~You think anything else, you know where the fuck checkuser is.~~ Try AGFing a little more and bring evidence if you feel the need to make any similar disparaging remarks. He iro 06:18, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Disparaging remarks? I fail to see how making other editors aware of a rather suspicious-looking couple of !votes (given that one is very nearly a SPA) could be considered a violation of WP:AGF or a "disparaging remark", and frankly that assumption wasn't exactly the best demonstration of WP:AGF I've ever seen, and there is absolutely no reason to answer with profanities in an AfD. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 10:31, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - With the AVN award restored to the article, he passes the current version of WP:PORNBIO. -- John of Reading (talk) 05:23, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Here's why http://donnylong.com/blog/wiki-and-the-bullshit/
Keep meets WP:PORNBIO by virtue of the AVN award. Award should not have been removed by nom.Horrorshowj (talk) 14:34, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The AVN award being discussed is as one of several people in a group oral sex scene - while I'm sure that Danny Long is very good at what he does, this shouldn't give him a great deal of notability (in our sense, at least). A marginally notable BLP where the subject requests deletion, especially where there's a lack of independent reliable sources and a problem with maintaining NPOV, feels like something best deleted. - Bilby (talk) 15:14, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Regardless of what he did to earn the AVN award, the first criterion of WP:PORNBIO states, "Has won a well-known award such as an AVN Award." The AVN alone is enough to demonstrate notability, and it seems he's also made a lot of contributions to his field. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 15:18, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I understand this, but without reliable sources there's just no way we can write a balanced article. My feeling is that PORNBIO shouldn't trump the GNG, and at best he seems to be of marginal notability. As the subject requested deletion, I see that as a better solution than leaving the article up - I'd feel different if there was evidence that he had a bigger impact on the industry, of course, but for that we'd need sources which seem to be lacking. That said, I understand that others will disagree with me, and I've got no hassles with that. - Bilby (talk) 15:35, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete

Go ahead and delte my facts again mother fuckers because I have thousands of ips and imacros bot i can set to attack this page if you keep it up. Delete the fucking page! I DONT HAVE TIME TO DEAL WITH THIS SHIT! Wiki and the bullshit June 28th, 2010 · No Comments

Wiki is a nightmare to deal with and they dont respond and fix things for shit. I have a bunch of false rumors and libel lies up on my pages and after a week of fighting with them its still not removed. I have had this happen 4 times in the past 3 years and the last 3 times through email wiki fixed it and locked the page. They promised the last time that the page was locked forever and that this wouldn’t happen again but guess what they lied.

Whats more sad about this is i have a link on many of my websites to my wiki page and drive them a lot of free traffic and for what? For them to treat me like this and make me waist my time and countless hours fighting with them. Its all because of a couple stupid xtper loser haters from message boards and blogs but you would think wiki would be better than that and remove the bullshit and libel.

This is what the page should read and all the libel and its history should be deleted and the page should be locked if someone at wiki with a brain can do this it would be much appreciated. What would be even better is if the page would just be deleted since now i hate wiki for making me waist my time doing all this bullshit.
