AFAIK B.S. Christiansen has never taken any education as a US Navy SEAL, although he has attended the US ranger shool. See his official homepage for details: [1]. --neckelmann 16:05, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] {{references}}

Blindly adding {{references}} to every stub is not helping, very few stubs have references, and very few stubs put in information that is traditionally referenced in articles with references. If there is some specific claim you want references, add {{fact}} after that claim.--Per Abrahamsen 19:45, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Blindly adding {{references}} to every stub is not helping

True, but since I haven't done that, there's no point in saying that.

very few stubs have references

And those are the ones that get deleted pretty quickly.

If there is some specific claim you want references, add {{fact}} after that claim.

That would be THE ENTIRE ARTICLE, hence the use of the tag. I repeat, for the SECOND time, there are NO sources/references AT ALL except the self-reference. --Calton | Talk 21:57, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Instead of mentioning something that is TOTALLY OBVIOUS (thus making the tag TOTALLY USELESS) again, why not answer my question? What facts in the stub needs references? I could add zillions of links to (mostly Danish language) articles that would contribute nothing to the article, but that would just be link spam.--Per Abrahamsen

[edit] Notability

If you want to argue the notability of BS Christiansen, do it here. Don't readd the template without arguing in the talk page, that is rude and unhelpful (the template is good for getting someones attention, not for a discussion). I feel that the fact that links on other pages would turn red is argument enough, what else do you want? 70000 Google hits? Or that he is trainer for the top rated professional bike racing team? Or his 28 entries IMDb? --Per Abrahamsen 19:45, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Don't readd the template without arguing in the talk page

The template IS the argument: who the hell IS this guy?

You know, the more you dodge the obvious questions and rely on irrelevancies and wikilawyering, the less I think is there. Address the issues or the next stop is WP:AFD. --Calton | Talk 21:57, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

I gave five arguments for notability. Your only counter-argument until now has been "I don't care". Please set up the article for deletion. Those people usually give better arguments than "who the hell IS the guy".--Per Abrahamsen 01:28, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
