The only way Mr. Brandt's article will be deleted, at least in this current debate, is if he's found to be non-notable. As others here have said, as soon as someone provides enough evidence to prove notability, we're back again with the same old arguments.
I really wish I could vote Delete per ethical concerns, but that won't fly at DRV or in Wikipedia in general. As the venerable Doc glasgow said once "Consensus be damned!" and I'm beginning to agree. Mr. Brandt might be lucky enough to get his article stubbed after this debate, but even then, the article is there and the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round ad infintium.
Only a deus ex machina from Jimbo or the WikiMedia Foundation can end this debate. Preferably with an Opt-Out Policy that will be of benefit to all other living people with articles such as Mr. Brandt.
I don't have faith that the Wikipedia Community, at this time, will go for an Opt-Out Policy. Shame!
