Appears to fall under WP:BLP1E as he doesn't appear to have done anything else worth of note outside of anger the IRS. BangJan1999 21:18, 25 July 2024 (UTC) reply

• Weak keep: Some coverage here [1] and [2]. Seems to have been notable in relation to Eisenberg as well. Oaktree b ( talk) 21:56, 25 July 2024 (UTC) reply

• Keep Resisting taxes for years isn't a single event. And he's also well known for his anti-Vietnam War actions, such as refusing the draft which received a large amount of news response at the time, and his anti-nuclear actions, all of which received significant coverage.

Not to mention there's an entire documentary about him. Silver seren ^C 22:11, 25 July 2024 (UTC) reply

• Keep as per above. Just added another documentary that featured him. Leutha ( talk) 22:26, 25 July 2024 (UTC) reply
• Clear keep. There are thousands of individuals with articles who are far less notable, including dozens included in the List of peace activists. Given its stated rationale, the proposed AFD does not even seem to have been made in good faith. As already noted there are numerous reliable sources following his activities and career; he is the subject of a doc that has its own Wikipedia article; he was the leader for years of a national non-profit advocacy organization that had widespread popular and celebrity support; and his public discussion of his own draft resistance is what specifically moved Daniel Ellsberg (according to Ellsberg's autobiography) to release the Pentagon Papers.

  Keep. This Randy Kepler’s importance and influence will grow with time and history. 2601:193:8200:1884:EC0A:BE50:D3C9:AADE ( talk) 12:23, 26 July 2024 (UTC) reply

• Keep: BLP1E concerns one event. Not a lifetime of numerous well-documented events. That's like claiming that Barry Bonds wouldn't clear BLP1E because his notoriety was solely connected to baseball. Ravenswing 03:25, 26 July 2024 (UTC) reply
• Weak Keep. There seems to be sufficient coverage about the subject, although in local/regional publications, even before. Now, coverage is also present regarding his recent death. Prof.PMarini ( talk) 06:14, 26 July 2024 (UTC) reply
• Keep: - Article is self-evidently notable and we are approaching the snow. Jusdafax ( talk) 17:51, 26 July 2024 (UTC) reply
