It borders on the speedy delete criteria, but some may feel an asseration for hosting a radio show and being a pastor. Sadly, however, there are millions of of religious ministers out there, and what wikipedia is not is a collection of biographies on everyone. Last, it reads like an advertisement/publicity piece for the man in question. I apologise to The New Capernaum Church. There's nothing wrong, its just wikipedia doesn't have an article on every person. Kevin_b_er 22:11, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd be inclined to agree. He doesn't seem all that notable. --Natalie 01:58, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Deletion would be inappropriate. I'd invite the community to reconsider. Rev. Freeman is a notable minister and community activist responsible for work that has influenced thousands of lives. He is also a notable motivational speaker to include work with the South Carolina Black Family Caucus, the NFL Players Association, Keynote Speaker for Super Bowl XXXVIII pre-game worship service, etc. Perhaps his notablility needs to be more clearly stated for those who are not aware of his significant contributions to the community. I'd also suggest that we consider the guidelines for speedy deletion: "Only those articles where there is no remotely plausible assertion of notability should be considered for Wikipedia:Speedy deletion." In conclusion, I would suggest, if necessary, that the article be rewritten to avoid any "vain" intimations. --MINEJF1906 19:58, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Yet another embarassing vanity article. Byrgenwulf 11:33, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as per nom. --Cassavau 23:32, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as vanity. There isn't much here, so recreating it would be easy if he becomes notable. --Royalbroil 04:18, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
