Deletion of David A. Yeagley

Comment: Please comment on the notability of the subject. Your opinion of Yeagley as a person is not useful here, and  applies to AfD as much as it does to articles. Attacks on Yeagley are ''not'' appropriate

Comment: because notability not established per  or per any of the more specific criteria in . The blatant COI editing and the legal threat above don't help Yeagley's personal credibility, but are not really relevant to the decision on whether to keep a cleaned-up article on him or to delete it

Comment: This article obviously needs a good makeover to ensure |neutrality, as most of the editing appears to be from people with strong opinions about Yeagley rather than from people taking an objective view of what has been published in independent reliable sources, but there has clearly been significant coverage in such sources, meaning that he is notable: http://books.google.com/books?id=xVeIsvQjFN4C&pg=PA258&dq=%22David+A.+Yeagley%22+OR+%22David+Yeagley%22&hl=en&ei=gUJPTN3JEcq9sAbEqOWgAQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4&ved=0CDUQ6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=%22David%20A.%20Yeagley%22%20OR%20%22David%20Yeagley%22&f=falsehttp://books.google.com/books?id=MVr5VGc2JgsC&pg=PA201&dq=%22David+A.+Yeagley%22+OR+%22David+Yeagley%22&hl=en&ei=gUJPTN3JEcq9sAbEqOWgAQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CD4Q6AEwBQ#v=onepage&q=%22David%20A.%20Yeagley%22%20OR%20%22David%20Yeagley%22&f=falsehttp://books.google.com/books?id=H_RrLyV9rDUC&pg=PA445&dq=%22David+A.+Yeagley%22+OR+%22David+Yeagley%22&hl=en&ei=gUJPTN3JEcq9sAbEqOWgAQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=26&ved=0CJoBEOgBMBk#v=onepage&q=%22David%20A.%20Yeagley%22%20OR%20%22David%20Yeagley%22&f=falsehttp://books.google.com/books?id=LFHzAAAAMAAJ&q=%22David+A.+Yeagley%22+OR+%22David+Yeagley%22&dq=%22David+A.+Yeagley%22+OR+%22David+Yeagley%22&hl=en&ei=gUJPTN3JEcq9sAbEqOWgAQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=39&ved=0CNABEOgBMCYhttp://books.google.com/books?id=I3KBAAAAMAAJ&q=%22David+A.+Yeagley%22+OR+%22David+Yeagley%22&dq=%22David+A.+Yeagley%22+OR+%22David+Yeagley%22&hl=en&ei=gUJPTN3JEcq9sAbEqOWgAQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=44&ved=0COQBEOgBMCshttp://www.informaworld.com/smpp/content~db=all~content=a741506926http://muse.jhu.edu/login?uri=/journals/wicazo_sa_review/v023/23.1russell.htmlhttp://muse.jhu.edu/login?uri=/journals/american_indian_quarterly/v031/31.2byrd.htmlhttp://www.informaworld.com/smpp/content~db=all~content=a904092219http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/content~db=all~content=a758728739http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/content~db=all~content=a755199600http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C01E0DF1E3CF933A05750C0A9639C8B63&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=2http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2008/06/23/18510505.php. The nominator and others have brought up lots of other issues apart from notability, but they are reasons to edit the article rather than to delete it, and, most certainly, distaste for Yeagley's opinions is not a reason for deletion, otherwise we might as well delete Adolf Hitler (please don't quote Godwin's law at me)  and Osama bin Laden

Comment: Quite a tough one, but I've taken a close look and found a few problems: The lead section provides no context which explains why he is notable; None of his music has reached any charts, and the biography does not meet , unless I'm mistaken that the statement: "For this paper, Yeagley received letters of praise, including one from the President and CEO of the Mihan Foundation." indicates that this person is worldwidely recognisable
