Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Todd Friel

Todd Friel

No indication that this article meets WP:NOTE or WP:BIO. Of the 17 references at time of nomination, 16 are clearly not independent (3 are to the agency representing Friel, 3 are to pieces written by Friel himself and 10 to mentions by organisations for whom Friel has performed/spoken/written) and 1 is to a blog entry (unreliable and unacceptable per WP:BLP) I am also nominating related article Wretched with Todd Friel for deletion.

Keep - as sources don't establish notability, facts do: 1500 stage performances, radio host of several broadcasts (including nationally), evangelist, writer for Christian Chronicle and Christian Worldview Network, TV host for 30+ million homes nationally, a writer, and a few other things - all of which establish notability. Sources don't establish it, being notable does. Sources are to verify them. -- American Eagle (talk) 05:26, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Aren't sources required to prove that those things have actually been done? ILovePlankton (talk) 05:27, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
