edit
Delete per WP:BLP, hoax, vandalism. New editor is introducing an unsourced name change which has already propagated to Google. The basis is possibly this blog where the BLP subject "considers himself" a Staal brother. I have done diligent research and find no proof of family relation, am discussing with new editor. Possible speedy as BLPSE. Franamax (talk) 07:03, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
- It's fine if you ask me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Laurentian15 (talk • contribs) 16:35, March 16, 2009 (UTC)
- Delete - Though the first three words are correct (Cabral "Cabbie" Richards) , the "Staal" one is not true. Versus22 talk 07:04, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
- Delete as a BLP violation. Tavix (talk) 01:52, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- Note the creator of the redirect is now indef blocked for vandalism. This item should qualify as a CSD:G3. Franamax (talk) 21:17, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
Delete. As already remarked on the talk page by another user, this is an attempt to make a bad misinterpretation of Wikipedia:Verifiability appear as official policy. A textbook case of disrupting Wikipedia to make a point, namely the point which the redirect's creator, apparently a vociferous Wikpedia critic, has expressed here as "Wikipedia does not respect truth or facts or sourced material." See also Wikipedia_talk:Verifiability/Archive_32#WP:Consensus.2C_not_truth, and other edits by the same user, especially on topics like Jimmy Wales, Citizendium and Larry Sanger.

- Delete - seems to be a misinterpretation/negative characterisation of Wikipedia policy; very few incoming links, and no history worth preserving. Robofish (talk) 01:48, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
- Delete per HaeB and Robofish. Redirect has no basis in fact or actual policy (past or present). Was created to make a point. Delete with extreme prejudice. — Ched ~ (yes?)/© 02:10, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
- Delete - with extreme prejudice. WP:POINT. — neuro(talk) 02:59, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
- Delete this as just really obnoxious WP:POINTage. The editor in question is using this to hammer on the same assertions over and over again; nobody else is using it for anything. — Gavia immer (talk) 05:11, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
