Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Matt Sanchez (3rd nomination)
The subject is of marginal notability, and has personally requested that we delete the article.  We should honor his request. Per : "''Wikipedia articles should respect the basic human dignity of their subjects. Wikipedia aims to be a reputable encyclopedia, not a tabloid.''"  I've done extensive research on the Sanchez situation, and have experienced firsthand the battles on the article's talkpage.  The article has been a magnet for |SPA editors who are using it as a |soapbox and |Battleground, and as a tool with which to harass Sanchez, who has now threatened legal action.   Further, some of the "Keep" comments above are from some of these same SPAs, so I recommend that the closing admin here take a look at contribution history when making their decision.  To be clear: Though Sanchez does pass , he does it in a marginal fashion.  He is not such a notable individual that we ''have'' to have an article on him.  He was in a handful of porn videos, and has been in the news a few times, but per 1E, that doesn't mean he's majorly notable.  There has never been a third-party biography on him, in any medium.  Further, deleting this article will help to de-escalate this dispute. Months of time have been wasted on the battles at the Matt Sanchez article, and the amount of attacks and harassment and speculative defamation that have taken place at the article's talkpage is simply staggering.  The subject just wants to be done with it, and has requested that we delete the article, so let's just honor that and move on
