You have a point, but his notability or lack

decided with speedying. The no assertion of notability thing is for
things like [[Sam Toupin]]. This article is basically about some 15
year old girl who likes DDR.
But... but.... I thought that "article does not assert notability" was
a criteria for speedy deletion? Wasn't that what you were complaining
about? At what level are you objecting to the policy -- the fact that
someone speedied something under this criteria, or the criteria
itself?
The Sam Toupin article would have been quietly throttled at birth six months
ago--no CSD A7 necessary , just a commonsense attitude that, well, this is a
guy writing about his girl.
Two articles routinely speedied on January 27 this year:

Ben Hooper is a great man who is always your best friend and pal, look for
him around and say "Hello Ben"

A person who is extremely good at sport or physical activities.
Now we have CSD A7 and suddenly we're discussing whether academics with
major government positions and teaching posts in several countries are
speedy candidates.
This is not an advance. We're moving backward and engaging in pointless
arguments about articles we shouldn't even be thinking of deleting.
