Johan Geleyns
The page claims that this person is (or will be), as best I can tell, a city council member, with no evidence of other achievements or notability. The single quote isn't particularly meaningful, either. There's a Wikipedia page for this person, but it seems like all the work on it is being done by the same person who created the Wikiquote page. —LrdChaos (talk) 16:33, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Don't Delete I can assure you that he is (will be at 1 January) a city council member, I am his son, and this quote is real. It was in a Belgian Newspaper "De Standaard", ask a Belgian Wikipedian who reads "De Standaard". --84.195.185.90 19:29, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I am a City Council member. Can I have my quotes? Fys. &#147;Ta fys aym&#148;. 19:47, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not notable even if he is a city council member. The single quote is not particularly quotable either. -- Former Precinct Chairman Ubiquity 20:02, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete unless evidence provided of notability within the English-speaking world, and quotes sourced in same. This appears to be an attempt for self-promotion (or at least familial promotion). Note that, based on editing patterns, 84.195.185.90 appears to also be w:User:Wikipedianus Anonymus (the WP article creator), who was blocked from editing at nl:WP for sock-puppeting to promote one of his articles for featured status. Futhermore, the Dutch article Johan Geleyns has also been tagged for deletion as self-promotional. I've prod'd the en:WP article, too. The familial enthusiasm is commendable, but not appropriate.~ Jeff Q (talk) 23:49, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not notable. 121a0012 02:56, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete. Quote isn't distinctive, and subject is unlikely to be notable to an English-language audience. Fys. &#147;Ta fys aym&#148;. 21:53, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
