~~Article was previously deleted back in 2007 for a lack of notability; bringing this back up for discussion since it has been re-created this year.~~ Not finding a lot of improvement in sourcing since 2007. The bulk of the subject's coverage appears to be small mentions in a variety of articles. ~ Super Hamster Talk Contribs 23:42, 19 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Comment. I think this "Benjamin Cass" is a different person as the previous Afd discussion refers to someone who "owns a few websites and was part of a local, citywide film festival". There appear to be some allegations of impropriety in connection with Andrew Landeryou, however, whatever that may be is likely subject to WP:ONEVENT and WP:EVENT. - Location ( talk) 00:55, 20 October 2014 (UTC) reply
- Nice catch, thank you. I've stricken the intro to my statement. ~ Super Hamster Talk Contribs 01:08, 20 October 2014 (UTC) reply
  - I could be wrong. Might need an admin to look back at the old article to confirm it. - Location ( talk) 01:10, 20 October 2014 (UTC) reply
Comment, the previous article was for an American with a different birthdate to the Australian currently occupying the article. I think it's reasonably safe to assume they're different people. Lankiveil ^{(

Comment. He is mentioned in this academic paper, and in the following sources [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]... If the article is kept, Victoria Student Housing (VSH) should be mentioned. -- Edcolins ( talk) 20:58, 26 October 2014 (UTC) reply
Delete. Regarding VSH and the sources noted above, I have big BLP concerns in that 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 specifically refer either to accusations, allegations, or claims made against the subject, and that it seems to end there. (5 is not a reliable source.) As an event, this appears to fail WP:EVENT, as does the earlier litigation. As an individual, I'm not sure if WP:POLITICIAN is applicable to a student union leader, but he would fail that one, too. - Location ( talk) 22:26, 26 October 2014 (UTC) reply
Delete. Non-notable person. Fails WP:BIO. -- Edcolins ( talk) 17:11, 27 October 2014 (UTC) reply
