• Strong keep - why is this getting nominated again? Notability is clearly sufficient: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8] (note: more can be found in the previous nomination discussions - I won't list them all). Furthermore he has over 12k followers on twitter, is the founder of the P2P Foundation and is a a recognized spokesperson who has been called the single most active thinker about questions of peer-production/commons.

• Speedy Keep - Nom is an SPA who started by doing some blanking at Cultural assimilation and then started nominating for deletion several articles that seem vaguely related to P2P research, without any apparent knowledge of what WP:N is. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 17:59, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
• Keep -- the nomination appears to be capricious, as previous AfDs confirmed notability. K.e.coffman (talk) 18:38, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
