- Above unsigned nomination by User:62.254.0.38
Attack page, was tagged for speedy deletion before. Also nominated: CRACKING as an unencyclopedic topic (if decision is to keep James Martin article, CRACKING should be merged). Alternative: move to user space. --MarkSweep 01:12, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete both. Crap. Postdlf 01:54, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete both, notability not established, nonsense, greasy singer Peter Andre, underage grirlfriend? Megan1967 02:23, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete -- reads like a semi-attack mixing an ounce of admiration for the guy. Regardless, we don't need it about. - Longhair | Talk 02:25, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete
both, and also note that one of the authors has vandalised this VfD page once already. What my vote they blanked said follows: Delete. No evidence of notability, his only claim to fame seems to be that he now presents for Rugby FM, a local radio station on which we don't (as I write) have an article and probably don't want one. There's a can of worms here, see User:Billbennett, the original contributor of this article (redirects to an article on himself, vanity?), and Source FM, the low-power amateur Uni radio station from which all these articles and more probably originate.

- Delete, Not only does the notice ont he actual page saying this article has been considered for deletion keep being removed, but this Votes For Deletion page keps being vandalised by the authors too. Surely this is vandalism and misuse of wikipedia? Also delete CRACKING. Why either article has anything to do with Wikipedia is beyond me, put people seem obsessed with posting crap to do with this guy. The problem is, even if the article is deleted, the inssitence of these people will ensure it keeps being reinstated. Also, as I stated (before the entire contents of this page were blanked), references to this person keep appearing on theDisc Jockey page, even though he is unimportant, and has no reason to be referenced there.62.254.0.38 08:04, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: This IP has now nominated CRACKING as a separate VfD. Unfortunately they have done it as a personal attack. No change of vote on James Martin (DJ), and I've voted to delete CRACKING on its own subpage. Andrewa 21:14, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Why is he here, and why is he relavant? And why info about him liking Peter Andre and his sex life?212.219.188.240 09:54, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Consider creating a userid. Votes from IPs do count, but not much. If a hundred of you vote one way, and one logged-on user with a good contribution history votes against you, then I'd consider the vote won by the logged-on contributor. Other admins may be a little more favourable towards anons, but not much. Andrewa 21:19, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
