Bio lacking notability, lacks coverage about Sandlin in independent reliable sources, refs are by him not about him or are not independent. Nothing better found. Nothing satisfying WP:BIO. duffbeerforme (talk) 05:56, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Important member of the Christian Reconstruction movement, as this encyclopedia asserts. StAnselm (talk) 06:11, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- It doesn't contain a biography of him, though, or even any more than that 1 sentence. So what's your argument for Wikipedia containing a biography of this person? All sources here, bar that 1-sentence source, were written by P. Andrew Sandlin, as was much of this very article itself. This is autobiography, plain and simple. Where are the independent sources documenting this person in depth? Uncle G (talk) 15:42, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Uncle G, lacks coverage by reliable third-party sources and therefore failing WP:GNG. - Mailer Diablo 10:46, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep. There are lots of independent reliable sources out there, as expected for a notable religious figure. New Religious Movements and Religious Liberty in America (Baylor University Press), Dictionary Of Premillennial Theology (Kregel Publications), and Encyclopedia of American religions (Gale), to name just three. -- 202.124.72.127 (talk) 14:34, 10 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- sufficient publications. I have never heard of them, but his is not quite my theological position (I think). Peterkingiron (talk) 12:54, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
