  • Not done: We don't delete articles just because the subject of the topic requests it. We can only delete things that meet a very special set of criteria. Please see WP:DELETE. — {{U|Technical 13}} (etc) 16:03, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • The thing is that as a person who has served in a state legislature, Michael Scionti is a topic that we must have an article about. While we can certainly reevaluate and reconsider what content should or should not be present in the article, he cannot declare himself to be entirely "off limits" as a topic — we must, always and with no exceptions for any reason ever, always be able to write an article about every person who has served in a U.S. state legislature. Given that this article as written is entirely unsourced, I'm potentially willing, for WP:BLP compliance reasons, to trim it back to whatever basic details I can quickly locate a source for — but he can't just request total deletion, because there are legitimate reasons why readers can and do need to be able to access some information about former politicians.
