Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John Leach (writer)
I'm not sure what the rationale for this nomination is.  Reading the talk page, it appears that Mr Leach (BlackJack, the nominator) feels that he ''passes''  (so the article should be kept), but has nominated the article for deletion so that his notability can be confirmed.  I would remind him that stare decisis does not apply to Wikpedia, and that, even if this AfD results in a "Keep", there's no restriction on the article being re-nominated immediately.  If not exactly a bad-faith nomination, it's certainly out-of-process - perhaps the best thing to do is close _this_ AfD, and wait until one of Mr Leach's detractors raises a genuine objection to his notability
