Completing nomination for User:Paxti. On the merits, I have no opinion. The original nomination, mistakenly posted to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ross Jeffries, follows. UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 19:20, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Nomination of page for individual who appears to have little notability and appears to be have been created for self promotion. He is involved in the "pick-up" industry which is notorious for unsubstantiated promises of success for men with the opposite sex and for shameless self publicity in an attempt to make profits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paxti (talk • contribs) 17:54, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2012 June 5. Snotbot t • c » 19:40, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete To add further, the referencing is extremely poor and no convincing material is available to suggest this page is notable.
Not only is the topic seemingly non-notable, but it also appears to exist only because of multiple editors and should be deleted as per WP:SOAP --Paxti (talk) 19:41, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment Based only on reviewing the past AfD's, there appears to be strong consensus he's notable. However, it looks like he's notable almost solely for marketing himself and his company. Very similar situation to the recent deletions here. --Ronz (talk) 16:13, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

- Delete I was just about to add this page to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/State management (NLP) because the guy seems to be a not-particularly-notable writer on the subject of NLP (I can't actually see anything here to suggest that he is, so why is he in that category???). Having looked at some of the sources on offer here, it seems he is also an obvious self-promoter and the sources are pretty weak, not reliable, dead or promotional. One of the reliable sources (Strauss' book) also says that his claims to notoriety are false! Famousdog 12:10, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
