Non-notable racer; seems to verge on an ad for his businesses and his family. Orange Mike | Talk 22:09, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

  • Strong keep: Professional drag racer. Holds more IHRA world championships than anyone else [http://www.ihra.com/downloads/pdf/competition/ihra_leaders.pdf]. Looks like textbook notability to me. — Bdb484 (talk) 00:32, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
  • Obvious keep. I'm rather surprised that the nominator, as an adminstrator, didn't follow the instructions that say "when nominating an article for deletion due to sourcing or notability concerns, make a good-faith attempt to confirm that such sources aren't likely to exist". A simple [http://news.google.co.uk/archivesearch?um=1&ned=uk&hl=en&num=100&q=%22Anthony+Bertozzi%22&cf=all Google News archive search] would have shown that such sources exist.

:Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 23:59, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

  • Keep I agree, the sources are pretty overwhelming in establishing notability--although they require searching without the middle name to find so I am hesitant to chastise the nominator! Cazort (talk) 00:46, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
