This person is of no importance or significance. Article needs to be deleted and any notable information in it should be added to Britney Spears. Relationships do not transfer notability. Save-Me-Oprah (talk) 23:56, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete I agree with you. This person doesn't meet notability. ― LADY GALAXY 01:25, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - This person has the the in depth subject of multiple independent sources including People Magazine, The Daily Mail and many others. , the core criterion of both WP:NOTABILITY and WP:BIO.  Speedy deletion is out of the question.  The WP:NOTINHERITED essay (not policy or guideline) that the nom quoted does not apply to those that in fact are the subject of secondary sources.  --Oakshade (talk) 02:47, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
 * But is he notable for being anything other than the boyfriend of Britney Spears? Probably not, which brings me back to my original statement that relationships do not transfer notability. Save-Me-Oprah (talk) 04:33, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Just because you don't like the reason of this person's notability and him passing both WP:N and WP:BIO doesn't make him non-notable. --Oakshade (talk) 04:44, 21 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Transwiki to Wikipopuli, a more suitable wiki for biographies of people whose notability is in question. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheYellowCabin (talk • contribs) 04:15, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - meets guidelines for notability with multiple secondary sources as noted by User:Oakshade. -- Whpq (talk) 16:52, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep or something because I came to Wikipedia looking for information about who this guy is from several articles that mentioned him in passing (including this one ) Nesnad (talk) 13:15, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom at the moment, because this article doesn't require inclusion in an encyclopedia just yet because it's a blatant violation both of WP:BLP1E and WP:NOT - for precedent, see Articles for deletion/Corey Delaney as an example of something with many news sources, but nothing to incidate any long-term notability for a person. And since relationships do not transfer notability, there's nothing to suggest that the outcome of this case has to be any different. I do think that he warrants a one-sentence mention in Britney Spears, though - and nothing more right now. Wikipedia is not a tabloid or a celebrity gossip column.--h i s  s p a c e   r e s e a r c h 14:27, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The Corey Delaney AfD is NOT precedent. Delaney was a private individual, not like Ghalib who intentionally place himself in front of every entertainment photographer and be in a relationship with arguably the most famous gossip subject in history.  WP:BLP1E applies to private individuals which this person is intentionally not.  --Oakshade (talk) 17:32, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd have to disagree with you on this. Consensus on the Britney Spears article is that he doesn't even warrant a mention in that article (although I wouldn't object to a mention), so he doesn't warrant an article at all right now, per Pinkadelica below.--h i s  s p a c er e s e a r c h 19:27, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Referring to this: Notability_%28people%29, his article may be unwarranted. Also, as a precedent, Jason Allen Alexander, who Spears was married to, only has a redirect and a small sentence in Spears' article.  He is also used as an example of Relationships do not transfer notability. All the reasons to keep this article could also be said for Alexander. Save-Me-Oprah (talk) 21:09, 22 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete' At most, this guy is a footnote in pop culture history. He's done nothing notable except possibly date Britney Spears and even she's denying that. I could see if he had done something notable before becoming a paparazzi, but so far, he's done nothing to warrant an entry on Wikipedia in my opinion. Pinkadelica (talk) 17:28, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

This man has his name in the public, and therefore should be on here, and not only that, but also with a lot more deatils so people just getting to hear about him can know all there is to know about him.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.228.88.159 (talk) 13:24, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep There are people all over wikipedia that people dont like... But that does not mean they don;t deserve to be there..


 * Delete Non-notable paparazzo. Tovojolo (talk) 09:53, 24 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete He will be out of the spotlight in about a month. 74.8.28.194 (talk) 17:37, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep He is amply covered by the media to warrant notability. Andrew73 (talk) 02:48, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep because people will come here wanting to know more about him, this is all WP is about. &Lambda;ua&int;  Wi  se  (talk) 16:06, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep He's notable; he gets a fair amount of media attention. --MgCupcake (talk) 01:13, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
