Previously speedily deleted articles are also ineligible for this criterion, although they may be deleteable under other criteria.
Article now defeats A7 speedy criteria which its initial speedy delete was conducted under, as it explicitly addresses biographic significance now.
<quote>G7:... This excludes articles that are not substantially identical to the deleted version, articles that address the reasons for which the material was deleted,</quote>
A7 criteria was listed in the initial speedy. This is not substantially identical to the one line stub I wrote which was A7'd.
<quote>A7:...that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant. ... The criterion does not apply to any article that makes any credible claim of significance or importance even if the claim is not supported by a reliable source. The criterion does apply if the claim of significance or importance given is not credible. </quote>
There is a claim of significance and importance made.
The claim is supported by Bob Gould in a published polemic. Historians of the Australian left will be well aware of Gould's capacity to speak here.
Palmer's credible importance is also established by having Freeny write an Australian Dictionary of National biography article regarding Palmer.
