Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Julius Barmat
I'm interested that nobody has mentioned the Google searches yet, because they produce a large variety of substantial GBooks hits which look as if they could be used to verify most of the article, at least in broad outline. There is, I will admit, a problem - they have a tendency to contradict one another on certain points, perhaps not surprisingly given the various strong biases that primary sources tend to show about political scandals and their participants. But while this is likely to increase the difficulty of writing an |NPOV article on Barmat, it should in no way make him non-notable. I can certainly see good reasons for stubbing or even redirecting the current article, given that it is apparently solely based on an unpublished version of a book that was clearly making political points - but that doesn't negate the fact that Wikipedia needs a proper article on Barmat which goes beyond the political scandal to which he gave his name
