I've withdrawn this. I don't think the individual is notable, and the article will likely remain as a WP:PERMASTUB, but I don't have the time nor the energy to argue the point. Especially not when it is likely the article will be kept anyway. This is a procedural concession. Remember to WP:AGF and happy editing! 11WB (talk) 13:10, 15 February 2026 (UTC)
I fail to understand why you conclude that the article will be kept if you believe Damian Martin isn't notable, since WP:AFDEQ explicitly states that “while AfD may look like a voting process, it does not operate like one. Justification and evidence for a response carries far more weight than the response itself.”
And I do AGF regarding the nomination as AFD, but please understand how your behavior made it hard for me to keep AGF about the way you answered (or didn't) Kelob2678's comment and mine. Arandomfolk (talk) 15:28, 15 February 2026 (UTC)
It doesn't matter what I think now. I conceded. This is what I was trying to avoid by closing the AfD. I'm not going to be drawn into a long discussion about this. You demonstrated the individual is notable, that's where the discussion ends. There is nothing further to say. 11WB (talk) 17:18, 15 February 2026 (UTC)
