*Keep for now, as Barnett is clearly not a WP:LOWPROFILE individual. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 00:46, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:GNG as a clear example of WP:BLP1E. KidAd talk 00:51, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, no reason every person who was at the Capitol needs an article. JayJayWhat did I do? 00:54, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete seems a clear BLP1E. Not sure if a redirect to 2021 storming of the United States Capitol is justified or not. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:56, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete — Archetype example of an individual notable for just one event, Although, @power~enwiki does raise a good point. Celestina007 (talk) 01:21, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Keep for now. There are claims that the invasion of the Capitol was a false-flag event. There should be pages on the offenders giving their background of being right wing since before Trump.LachlanA (talk) 02:33, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- What? – Muboshgu (talk) 03:46, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Definitely going to need reliable sources to back up the "claims" you mention... Thrakkx (talk) 04:00, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- This sounds like an attempt to ignore WP:GNG policy in order to soapbox and right a great wrong. The 2021 storming of the United States Capitol page itself makes it clear enough with literally hundreds of citations that these were right-wing, pro-Trump protesters and not a false flag; if someone doesn't believe those sources, that's not our problem to deal with.

- This input is ridiculous and should frankly be salted. DÅRTHBØTTØ (T•C) 00:57, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Factual disputes about the event should be covered in the event page, giving due weight to the conflicting views as supported by reliable sources. The facts can be stated in a paragraph or two in the event article rather than creating one-event biography stubs for alleged, but not-yet-convicted perpetrators. • Gene93k (talk) 11:16, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete Definitely a wp:gng and wp:blp1e issue. Possibly also a wp:SUSPECT problem as well. BrxBrx(talk)(please reply with {{SUBST:re|BrxBrx}}) 03:08, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

- Delete per nom. cookie monster (2020) 755 06:28, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, especially WP:BLP1E. I agree with power~enwiki and Celestina007 that a redirect to 2021 storming of the United States Capitol might be suitable. warmly, ezlev. talk 08:00, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete for now per nom and everyone else. Love of Corey (talk) 09:23, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Redirect to the article about the storming. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 22:08, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Speedy delete and redirect per WP:BLP1E. Redirect to 2021 storming of the United States Capitol. Missvain (talk) 00:29, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:BLP1E; also, under the Presumption of innocence policies in the US it should be impermissible to refer to someone as a criminal without being charged first. Augend (drop a line) 00:43, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete: Being one of hundreds who participated in an insurrection - his only extraordinary notability being the theft of a letter - does not lend credence to viability as a page on Wikipedia. DÅRTHBØTTØ (T•C) 00:57, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- DELETE per nom. There is nothing notable about the subject prior to rioters, including him, overtaking the Capitol. The subject has yet to be convicted. Also, allowing an un-notable subject's article to remain on Wikipedia feels like a public relations move for the subject. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 01:53, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Speedy delete per WP:NOTNEWS WP:BLP1E WP:CRIME. The several arrestees should be listed in the main article perhaps. Reywas92Talk 02:14, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete I have created a one-liner in the main article on the arrestee. Albertaont (talk) 03:32, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete clear WP:BLP1E Elliot321 (talk | contribs) 04:11, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Note: Listing new article title. Page has been moved at least twice. • Gene93k (talk) 10:59, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:BLP1E. At the moment, the only rioter partially notable for attending the event was Jake Angeli. Some Dude From North Carolinawanna talk? 16:41, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
