Shawn Mikula
The corresponding Wikipedia article Shawn Mikula has been deleted multiple times with prejudice, see w:Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Shawn Mikula. There appears to be a persistent self-promotion campaign by Mr. Mikula himself to insert his vanity bio to various wikis. Shawn Mikula and Shawn Mikula are protected against re-creation and from Google I found deletion log entries for es, bg, de and it wikis. Delete. jni June 27, 2005 05:57 (UTC)

 * Comment: I find many of Dr. Shawn Mikula's quotes extremely thought-provoking. Plus he has an extensive web presence and has many accomplishments to his name.  I vote to keep his quotes.
 * Added by User:128.120.134.29, moved to standard fmt by me. Should probably be disregarded as it is not explicitly signed. Urged user to sign properly. ~ MosheZadka (Talk) 27 June 2005 08:59 (UTC)

 * Delete. We should be prepared for retaliatory vandalism, based on Wikipedia's experience, for the nerve to suggest Mr. Mikula isn't God's gift to philosophy, even though he seems to be the only one who thinks so. And just for the record, the article creator is the one who made the improperly unsigned vote above to keep. I wonder who that may be? &mdash; Jeff Q (talk) 27 June 2005 09:51 (UTC)
 * Keep but after blanked and protected. English Wikiquote have 30 deleted revisions. It means it has been created at least 1.5  times in a month (assumingly the rest might be "deletion" tagging"). Even if we can speedy it from the next time, it is a waste of time. --Aphaia 28 June 2005 03:59 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not only not notable, but a lot of very bad, very trivial quotes. --Calton 05:57, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
