PROD removed without reason. Non-notable performer who fails WP:ENT Panyd^{The muffin is not subtle} 18:12, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep I disagree with the above reasoning. This is nothing more that a devious and spiteful attempt to defame and degrade a performer of great respect in the magic entertainment field. --User:Keevents

• Delete I agree with the above reasoning. --Pstanton (talk) 02:37, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Do not !delete Keep I disagree with the above reasoning. An email has been sent to Wikipedia to dispute these unnecessary Articles. The page Kurt Eden meets all WP Requirements. User Avlts —Preceding unsigned comment added by Avlts (talk • contribs) 03:31, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete not notable. I also changed the wording of the !vote above to !Keep so it would show up properly in the AfD stats. (GregJackP (talk) 14:45, 10 April 2010 (UTC))[reply]
• Delete. Does not meet WP:ENT from what I can see. That said, he may be notable under WP:N - although I doubt it. Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (talk) 16:03, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete "Hire Kurt Eden of Knoxville, Tennessee for your Wedding, Corporate Event, or Private Party." "$200-$1500 per event" Might be a different Kurt Eden. No, on examination it's the same one. http://www.gigmasters.com/Magician/kemagic/ I am puzzled by the external link "CBS Radio Article" which looks like KAPS Paranormal Radio when you go to it, and refers the visitor to Kurt's website and MySpace without giving anything solid itself. Establishes existence only - which is more than the IBM one does. No mention on that page at all. He is a 'rising star' according to some. Fair enough. Come back when risen a bit more - or provide better references (none at all provided yet) from independent reliable sources. Peridon (talk) 19:23, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"KAPS Paranormal Radio is proudly powered by Podbean and ChaoticSoul v1.0.1 (by Bryan Veloso)" - doesn't sound like CBS would to me, but I've never heard CBS. Peridon (talk) 19:25, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Not notable. I wouldn't have been looking at this if it hadn't been for the vandalism by Avlts (above) and another IP (a sock, no doubt), who keep removing "delete" votes. Avlts, keep that up and you'll have an indefinite block real soon. Drmies (talk) 21:01, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment - I restored the discussion that Avlts deleted again and did an AIV - hopefully that will put a stop to it. (GregJackP (talk) 03:06, 11 April 2010 (UTC))[reply]

• Comment. Should be taken care of now. - Vianello (Talk) 03:26, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I thought it was a case of 'Now you see it, now you don't'.... Peridon (talk) 11:34, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment to Avlts and or IP users Deleting or revising the discussion is a waste of your time. We just put it back every time. And doing it only damages your case. You'd be better looking for references to prove us wrong. Peridon (talk) 20:45, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. No indication that the references provided meet/prove any listed WP:ENT criteria. - Vianello (Talk) 22:45, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Do not delete. The page Kurt Eden is in good standing with WP. There is no reason to delete this page. Even though the page is at the entry stages doesn't call for deletion and unnecessary comments. Please discontinue this patter. Thank you.

• Do not delete. These comments and delete request are devious attempts to defame and degrade a performer of great respect in magic entertainment. We realize the article Kurt Eden is at an entry stage with minimum references. However, the whole purpose of a Wikipedia page is to build true biographies of a people that spend their life doing uncommon things. Who’s to say that the page Kurt Eden is not noble? Come on! This is ridiculous. Just because a person doesn’t have a worldwide fan base and missed the Oscars, doesn’t mean they’re not noble. The performer Kurt Eden is making way in the magic entertainment industry, headlining at major universities and venues across the US. Starting in October 2010, there will be better references of performances and features of the performer Kurt Eden. Again, this is an entry page that is in total compliance with Wikipedia. There is nothing misleading or out of line. Please discontinue these comments and spiteful attempts of deletion. 08:48, 13 April 2010 Kevents (talk) (sig added by (GregJackP (talk) 15:03, 13 April 2010 (UTC))) (strikethrough added as Kevents has already !voted.

  • Judging from the contributions of experienced editors here, the article is not, in fact, in compliance with Wikipedia guidelines--such as WP:N and WP:RS. Drmies (talk) 15:35, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - zero coverage in reliable sources to establish notability -- Whpq (talk) 16:27, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom, I can't find any reliable sources. ----Nuujinn (talk) 00:51, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
