- Keep - this is a joke. Please take your politics back to the Spanish wiki. Also, for the record, he is in the Marines, not the Army.--Looper5920 23:57, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep. Very notable in US Military history. There has only been one member of the US military to be awarded the Medal of Honor during this Iraq conflict. So, Peralta's nomination is quite notable. — ERcheck (talk) 00:59, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- (updated my vote to speedy keep ... Peralta is notable, the information is verifiable, and the article is written in keeping with WP:NPOV. — ERcheck (talk) 02:51, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Keep, I consider this a "Bad Faith" nomination based on political bias. Peralta sacrificed his life to save others and is a candidate for the Medal of Honor. Tony the Marine 01:55, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep per above. — Deckiller 02:08, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - I'd think a Medal of Honour nominee is notable enough for a WP article. Lack of neutrality (presuming you are correct) isn't a criterion for deletion. Guettarda 02:16, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep. This article is well researched, NPOV, and encyclopaedic. This is a nomination based on political bias. -Murcielago 03:16, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. A notable individual. -Will Beback 03:09, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy keep- Does the nominator's message means that Adolph Hitler's page makes us pro nazi? Antonio Pinche Boricua Martin
- Speedy keep. Notable soldier. Medal of honor nomination is well enough to warrant an article. Fdedio 12:42, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep While every fallen soldier or person isn't notable enough (sadly) to get their own article in an encyclopedia, this individual has received numerous prestigious awards, and is being considered for the Medal of Honor. --Porqin 12:57, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep. Clearly a good bloke, and a sad loss ... BUT the medals he has received are not particularly notable (qualification is 30 days service time), and I'm unswung on whether a MoH nomination is quite enough. Does anyone know what %ge of nominees recieve the award? And I don't consider a known perjurer a reliable source. -- GWO
- Thanks for your highlighting of what a good source is. No one here would have been able to know what one is unless you spelled it out for us. Your condescension is greatly appreciated. --Looper5920 13:34, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep as a bad faith nomination. There is certainly room to have an open, civil, good-faith discussion upon the merits of inclusion of articles about nominees for the highest military honor in a given country, but the nom does not address that topic. youngamerican (ahoy-hoy) 14:40, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
