WikiWatcher987: We were all newbies once, so try not to take a little criticism too personally, even if it may seem pointy to you . . . . Most of us wiki veterans are used to talking to each other in wiki jargon short-hand with links to policies and guidelines, and, yes, that can be arcane and a little obnoxious at times. Even though the article subject does not satisfy the specific criteria for politicians, he does satisfy the criteria under the general notability guidelines per
WP:GNG. Many subject areas have specific notability guidelines (SNGs), but all of them are back-stopped by GNG. For future reference, you may want to familiarize yourself with the
Wikipedia:Guide to deletion; there's a lot of good advice and conventional wisdom to be found there. If you have any questions, feel free to ping me or ask on my user talk page. Cheers.
