Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Matthew W. Gassen
First of all, never can we forget that we have been instructed to |ignore all rules when they stop us from improving the project.  Second, I've heard back from Mr. Gassen, who has directed me to the first source listed on this page.  Upon review, I would say that the article, at the very least, does provide enough notability to keep the article, especially under , which is policy, and therefore overrides the guidelines of , which does not say anything about needing significant coverage; the word "coverage" does not even appear in the guideline.  We can all agree that this is not a vanity page, nor is it a malicious page of any kind.  If a policy or guideline prevents us from keeping this article, which we know can contribute, then we must |ignore the guideline.  Should these undeniable truths be denied by an administrator, at least let me take the page into userspace and clean it, source it, and expand it until it can survive the this harsh wikiworld.  In fact, given the state of the article, I would put up with it being moved to my userspace for a little while so we can make it better
