[edit] Alex Cuppett

Delete - No reason given for notability, rank not given, details of service limited to vague job description and list of medals earned. Internet search turns up individual who is a New World Order conspiracy theorist Nobunaga24 00:10, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, insufficient context to determine if this person is actually notable. Royboycrashfan 00:22, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep google search identifies him as notable crackpot. Eivind 00:32, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Google search [1] returns ~50 hits outside of wp, which makes him a pretty minor crackpot. Fan1967 02:17, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete- just not notable enough. Reyk 02:37, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete per Reyk. Crackppot or not, he just isn't notable.Montco 03:08, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep semi famous. --Masssiveego 04:18, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete A little bit interesting, but non-notable. — Adrian Lamo ·· 04:33, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Interesting, but I think that thousands of vets will have got those medals.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 06:39, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as nn. --Terence Ong 07:46, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete notability not established in article -- Samir ∙ T C 08:09, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Does not establish notability for position (action officer at the Joint Chiefs of Staff; not a high ranking position.), nor for the following non-notable awards:

"The Defense Meritorious Service Medal is the third highest award..."

"The Purple Heart...to those who have been wounded or killed..."

"Bronze Star Medal... is the fourth highest award..."

"'The Commendation Medal is a mid-level..."

"The Vietnam Service Medal...is issued to recognize military service..."

"Joint Meritorious Unit Award... It is awarded to joint units or activities..."---Marcus- 09:40, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep This article needs to be redone, quite simply. The military awards are pretty superfluous to the article, and the guy is famous (to a degree) for his conspiracy theories etc.. I think with a good re-edit this article should eb a worthwile contribution to Wikipedia. --Wisden17 17:30, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as not-notable. Military service is not noteworthy, and Google results don't establish any real notability. —LrdChaos 17:53, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Abstain - Needs more information, not particularly notable. - Original editor, give us more... Oarias 03:43, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep - there's presently nothing worthwhile in the article, and is possibly vanity, listing all of his minor medals, but possibly borderline notable as a conspiracy theorist (though this is not mentioned). ProhibitOnions 23:01, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
