Deletion of Matt Sanchez (3rd nomination)

Comment: The notability of the subject is borderline. As a pornographic actor he was appeared in some mainstream media but has won no awards or recieved the sort of third party recognition that would make him very notable - at the fringe of . Similarly I don't think he has great notability as a journalist or member of the US military. These elements all have to be scraped together to produce what looks like an article, but the result is unsurprisingly a BLP minefield. Given that notability is borderline, there are serious BLP issues with the article and that the subject wishes it deleted, I think this article should be deleted

Comment: Per , the subject's wishes can be taken into account when making decisions related to the article. Notability, while sourced in the article, is fairly marginal overall. We should honor the subject's wishes and delete the article, although if a neutral stub can be written (the history should be left deleted due to attempts to insert BLP violations), it can be recreated

Comment: The subject is of marginal notability, and has personally requested that we delete the article.  We should honor his request. Per : "''Wikipedia articles should respect the basic human dignity of their subjects. Wikipedia aims to be a reputable encyclopedia, not a tabloid.''"  I've done extensive research on the Sanchez situation, and have experienced firsthand the battles on the article's talkpage.  The article has been a magnet for |SPA editors who are using it as a |soapbox and |Battleground, and as a tool with which to harass Sanchez, who has now threatened legal action.   Further, some of the "Keep" comments above are from some of these same SPAs, so I recommend that the closing admin here take a look at contribution history when making their decision.  To be clear: Though Sanchez does pass , he does it in a marginal fashion.  He is not such a notable individual that we ''have'' to have an article on him.  He was in a handful of porn videos, and has been in the news a few times, but per 1E, that doesn't mean he's majorly notable.  There has never been a third-party biography on him, in any medium.  Further, deleting this article will help to de-escalate this dispute. Months of time have been wasted on the battles at the Matt Sanchez article, and the amount of attacks and harassment and speculative defamation that have taken place at the article's talkpage is simply staggering.  The subject just wants to be done with it, and has requested that we delete the article, so let's just honor that and move on

Comment: per nomination, also per #Not a battleground, , , and .  This particular biography is a BLP hornet's nest and in a year of trying Wikipedia has been unable to establish any stable neutral version and the talk page long since degenerated into a venue for personal attacks.  The subject is the target of a hate site and is proving himself unable to adapt to Wikipedia site standards.  Overall value to encyclopedic completeness: minimal.  Overall drain on volunteer time: substantial
