I doubt this man walks on water. Michaelbusch 16:08, 22 November 2006 (UTC)


From the history it looks like the article was prodded back in October, but the nomination was quickly removed. Also, reviewing the contributors, 12 of the 25 contributors (not counting the bots, or the prod) have contributed only to this article or the subject's employers. Seems like WP:COI to me. Do you think we should add it to WP:AFD? Dallben 16:49, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Make it so. Michaelbusch 16:51, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Done. Dallben 18:28, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

I checked the primary subject of each link and none of those listed were about Brandenburg.

Not one of the articles is specifically about Brandenburg.

Comment on the analysis — Please note that this analysis was modified by a new user (see this page's history—WatchedHim 05:44, 1 December 2006), whose only contribution was this edit. The analysis which follows was then submitted by another new user (Stanlys212 14:14, 1 December 2006) and is an exact copy of WatchedHim's edits. Incidentally, Stanlys212's only edit has been to this page as well. Dallben 15:46, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads-up, Dallben. I suspect (as I'm sure you do) that both these users are Brandenburg himself, though I have no evidence. I support keeping the artilce, but really, really trimming the links section per your exhaustive analysis above. And, in any case, the foreign language links should be dispelled of per Wikipedia policy. — Frecklefoot | Talk 16:17, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
