- Delete Appears to be vanity page, added speedy tag. --Wildnox 03:53, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete, although this could be close to meeting WP:PROF. Brief article about his Florida candidacy here, which is not nearly enough for WP:BIO. Better references might convince me that he is notable. Unfortunately, this article is so incredibly painful to read that I can't get any more out of it. bikeable (talk) 03:57, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Question from a non-American: Piotr blass mentions that Blass is a candidate for the Florida gubernatorial election, 2006. That article lists him as a Write-in candidate which, as far as I can tell, means he's not really a candidate at all, merely someone who has campaigned for people to write his name on the ballot? And thus would not be notable on the grounds of being an electoral candidate? --Stormie 04:01, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Very good point. And yes, that would mean he is not notable as a candidate unless he can prove that he is widely popular. --Wildnox 04:07, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I already tagged this as a speedy delete. Looks like a vanity page. --Transfinite 04:13, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I could swear this was deleted before, because it is an autobiography. Ryūlóng 05:10, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Answer to non american a write in candidate has equal rights to all other candidates in florida
for 5300 dollars that changes to having your name printed on the ballot I decided against this course of action. The recent palm beach post plambeachpost.com has published a major positive article about my campaign putting it in the context of ideas of einstien and gandhi
as for other comments i am preparing vast documentation of notability of my work including its inclusion in the paris academy,russia and japan mainly about zariski surfaces
also the important impact of ulam quarterly journal will be documented and discussed with top editors in jim wales office i take this very seriously and please do not feel you can decide this unless you know mathematics at the ph d level at least. thanks dr piotr blass
