Despite the bickering, throughout most of that period the article has
actually been pretty good from what I've seen; occasionally a little
too obsessed with small if verifiable detail, but sourced to a pretty
high quality most of the time.

I feel no pity for a immoral self-publicist like Brandt, who's loved
the attention from the beginning.  I'm in favor of the article being
deleted simply because deleting it and not talking about him any more
is what he'll hate the worst.  If that's possible; I'm not sure a
deletion will stick, personally, nor stop the squabble - at best it'll
move it to other pages.
