The result was keep. Keep per WP:SNOW. The difference between the dossier and this article on the dossier is that this is well-referenced and verified. Delete arguments about "left-wing populism" miss the mark, and "all the sources is founded by one researcher or speculative" [sic] is belied by the facts of the article. If you disagree with an early close that's fine, I understand; I suggest you talk to another admin, or post at AN, about undoing it or whatever the next step might be. In the meantime, and in the absence of strong policy-based reasons to delete, I see no reason to keep this running. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 20:00, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
I think this article should be speedy-deleted as a BLP violation. It quotes extensively from an unverified document which makes numerous unproven derogatory claims about a living person. It even includes a PDF of the entire unverified, scandalous document. In other articles about this subject we have been careful to report only the existence of the document and reactions to it; we have carefully avoided repeating any of its unproven claims. I could not tag this for G10 because it does have sources, and in any case it would need broader community input to delete it. But I feel it qualifies for deletion as a violation of Wikipedia's BLP policies, and I would hate to see it stay in Wikipedia for a week. Can we apply IAR, perhaps?

*""speedy keep, and vote that whover nominated this for deletion be permanently banished from Wikipedia for such a poor excercise of partisan judgment. The idea that this is not an encylopedic topic is so laughable that it does not even a merit a response other than ridicule and public shaming,Sockhunter (talk) 21:50, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
