Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kenneth Dickson
You obviously have a long and distinguished record of contributions, so I'm willing to be corrected here -- but what am I missing, exactly?  He was a lieutenant colonel, but that hardly makes him Patton; he on his town's ''school board'' fercryinoutloud, he's got http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&source=hp&q=%22kenneth%20dickson%22&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wn nothing in major news . . . and this article contains totally unencyclopedic lines like "Judge Turrentine told the North County Times that Dickson did a 'great job' as a law clerk"; and "Col. Rakowsky said that Dickson was an expert in contract law, and a hard worker, noting, 'He was very much a team player, always asking, "What else can I do to help?"'"  I mean, "His children graduated as valedictorians from Murrieta Valley High School, in 1995 and 1996"?  One or two fawning pieces in the local press aside, I don't see anything at all to indicate that Kenneth Dickson is a major local political figure who has received significant press coverage" per .  And you've got to admit that this article reads like complete campaign advertising . . . so really, what am I missing
