Another piece of Guantanamo cruft created by a now-WP:SBAN editor. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NBIO. Mid-level military officer who is not notable, with no WP:SIGCOV about Kaniut the person or the military officer. The article is a collection of various WP:PASSING and WP:SYNTH.

- Delete - it's hard to tell for sure because the sources are almost all dead links, but titles and such suggest that the only one of them which is in-depth on the subject is published by The Wire (JTF-GTMO), i.e., by his employers and thus not third-party. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 06:35, 10 February 2025 (UTC)
- Delete The post 9/11 and Guantanamo events that supposedly made him notable occurred about 20 years ago and yet I am unable to find any significant coverage of him in independent sources in Google Books or anywhere else online. Cullen328 (talk) 09:15, 10 February 2025 (UTC)
- Delete - low-level officer who's gotten very little to zero coverage in the past 10 years. Keeping this would be a terrible precedent that would overturn 18 years of consensus here. Bearian (talk) 05:37, 11 February 2025 (UTC)
- Delete the officer fails WP:NBIO, lacking WP:SIGCOV in independent, reliable sources. The only kind of in-depth source is really affiliated with his employer, thus not WP:INDEPENDENT. --NiftyyyNofteeeee (talk) 10:39, 11 February 2025 (UTC)
- Delete fails WP:GNG. Mztourist (talk) 05:21, 12 February 2025 (UTC)
