Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eric Ely
Have the people praising the sourcing for this article actually read the sources? From what I can see, none of the sources that discuss Ely in any detail are independent. In fact all of them appear to be affiliated with the Schenectady school district. The bulk of the rest mention Ely's name once or twice, but are generally only passing mentions that note he is the superintendent of the district where "issue a" or "issue b" is being discussed. At least two are from blogs associated with newspapers, and one is an editorial. Outside from the pages supplied by his employer, the only sources that discuss him in depth are related to the arson controversy. This fails olitician and the sourcing is dreadful. This needs to be deleted
