The result was Move to Draft as shown by the history and I frankly concur with that considering this article is noticeably unsourced and will need better improvements (NAC). SwisterTwister talk 04:34, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment-Unsourced BLP's you can just do a BLP prod you know. As a note-this is technically a orphan as the pages that link to it is for someone with the same name. Wgolf (talk) 00:15, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. In spite of the article's lack of references, a simple Google search turns up plenty. It appears this gentleman is a fairly big-name businessman in Kansas [1], a notable poker player [2], and even had an arrest for public nudity that made headlines [3]...weird. In any case, I'd suggest the nominator be bold and attempt to fix the article. --Non-Dropframe _talk 00:42, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Userfy or keep subject passes notability, but without sources the article shouldn't be displayed. WP:SOFIXIT - editors that are enthusiastic about the article should put sources in or it should be userfied until those sources are put in.--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:00, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No reliable sources. Just some poker sites and local blogs. Cheers, _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 15:17, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note that the article creator has ownership issues, and from the level of detail introduced, almost certainly a conflict of interest. _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 15:58, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment @Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi: It was not proper for you to move this article to userspace during the AFD process. That move should have waited for the AFD process to conclude. Your move has subverted the AFD process by making a unilateral decision regarding the outcome. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 16:23, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. Was merely trying to avoid being forced to take that editor to AN3, the way it was going. Much easier if the thing got consigned to the servers' trash can. Cheers! _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 16:35, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
