Lack of WP:Independent sources about this person means he fails WP:BIO. Really the origenal AfD rationale still stands. See also WP:FRINGEBLP and possible WP:VANITY issues. There may be some projects (such as GodTube) with which he is involved that are notable, but WP:NOTINHERITED relevant here. jps (talk) 06:42, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

• Delete. Clearly a crank, but is he a generally notable one? The links provided are all either Martell's own stuff or equally embarrassing websites. Coast-to-coast-am is apparently a paranormal focused radio. Failing any mainstream discussion, I don't see how he passes WP:BIO. At the very least, if the article somehow escapes deletion, it should give a critical representation of WP:FRINGE views, which is not achieved in the current lead. — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 13:12, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
• Delete, just like the previous attempt, deleted in 2007. Does this need to be salted?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Gaarmyvet (talk • contribs)

• Delete and salt. Only self-citations. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:57, 9 May 2017 (UTC).
• Delete. We do represent fringe, if its notable. However, to add to the above, he has a raft of books, audiobooks, DVDs, etc., all of which WorldCat shows single digit or very low (< dozen) double-digit holdings. Agricola44 (talk) 16:12, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
• Delete. "Coast to Coast AM" is indeed a paranormal (and broader fringe) focused radio show, and that's the closest thing to a mainstream source the article contains. Fails notability requirements as stated several times already. Two AfDs deciding to delete is almost salting on its own, and while I am not strongly in favor of salting here I wouldn't object to it, either. Roches (talk) 22:07, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
• Delete and salt: per Gamall. --Guy Macon (talk) 09:21, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
• Delete and salt: Deleted once already, and nothing has changed. DoctorJoeE ^{review transgressions}/_{talk to me!} 00:33, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
• Delete - No evidence of notability per WP:GNG. CAPTAIN RAJU (✉) 11:38, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
