non-notable individual, no reliable sources, unverifiable — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.34.177.245 (talk • contribs)

Sure, you need to read about standards for reliable sources WP:RS, standards for verifiability WP:V, standards for notability WP:BIO. You can't write an article based on a bunch of self-published fan sites. Once you remove the unreliables sources, your simply won't have enough verifiable information to establish notablility. Come back after somebody has written a biography of the fellow. This is an encyclopedia, not a fan page. 80.135.203.4 00:03, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Why do you continue to post anonymously, from different IP addresses? The foundation for his page is his works, publications both private and public. I knew Ebony personally for about a decade and attended his funeral. Although I have much first-person evidence from him directly, all content for his wiki should be taken directly from solid sources. The inclusion of "Fan Pages" is to show the full scope of his influence on Thelemic culture, from an Anthropological perspective. I realize the wording of his biography is rough, but hey I just made this page yesterday. You sound like you knew him... why not contribute to the project rather than snipe? <3 Captain Barrett 00:15, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Choronzon has no fixed name or location. Your sources are crap. Your subject does not meet WP notabliity requirements. Period. 88.198.43.207 00:19, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Keep Ebony Anpu influenced the lives of many notable people. His work is known _Internationally_. The article is currently only a stub - still in progress of being compiled. Please give it time to be edited and polished. Destroying articles before they can be worked on by other editors (to create a NPOV) is not the Wiki way. Wiki is based on obtaining collective knowledge and peer-review. Ebony has possibly thousands of peers and it is a travesty to knowledge if his Wiki get's deleted before a complete entry is accomplished. Captain Barrett 16:32, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Keep if only for procedural reasons. Anons are not allowed to create afds. Oh yeah, and the article looks notable. Nardman1 17:04, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Delete - even by the standards of occultism, Ebony Anpu was a nutcase. His work may be "known internationally", but these days that's not far removed from saying "There's a web page about him somewhere". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.131.189.13 (talk) 23:18, 11 February 2007 (UTC).

So you admit he is known internationally; that is a solid foundation for Notable. "Nutcase" is qualitative and contributes nothing. He died in 1999, so the majority of his work was created and distributed _before_ the wide-spread use of the internet. If the internet helped to spread his work further, post-humously, that gives an even greater reason why he is notable. Can you be more specific, please? <3 Captain Barrett 23:31, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
