Billy Warnock

 * - (View AfD) (View log)

Seems like a non-notable boxer. No assertion of notability. PROD notice was removed. Guinnog 18:01, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - notability not achieved by being the brother of somebody notable I'm afraid. The Rambling Man 18:27, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Please leave this article alone. I am researching Billy's history and I plan to add more information in the near future. He fought in the 1930's so I have some work to do to add detail. But he is not notable for simply being Jimmy Warnock's brother. He had a very notable fighting career of his own which I will shortly show. (He was also my grandfather, which is not really notable!) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Darrylxxx (talk • contribs) 19:07, 20 January 2007 (UTC).
 * Userfy to User:Darrylxxx/Billy Warnock and let them complete the article. /wangi 19:35, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Userfy (is that really a word?) to Darrlyxxx's page to complete, as suggested by wangi. However, I think Billy only fought a few boughts, and may be just merged into his brother's article--maybe you know more as his grandson, he in addition to his brother were both rather well thought of though.  Let me know, Darryl, if you eventually find more, but I'd be surprised if you do, at least in amateur or professional boxing.  Please just work on your user page until you find more.  Great links, though. KP Botany 20:34, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Can we have more than "seems like a non-notable boxer" as a nomination for deletion? This was an important and colorful era of boxing in that part of the world, it gets a lot of play even in the world professional boxing press in America.  I don't think Billy is quite Wikipedia-worthy, because he only fought in a few matches.  Still, "seems like" is just POV.   KP Botany 20:36, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your constructive comments. Billy fought in a lot more than 4 professional fights. The correct record is what I am currently researching. Darrylxxx 20:39, 20 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Userfy per Wangi. -Toptomcat 00:58, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Actually, I thought it was 3. I think the boxing board is wrong.  Still, keep researching, put it up when you get the information.  KP Botany 01:32, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Billy Warnock is not notable. He appears to have fought main events, but too little is known of him to make him notable. His brother Jimmy would make the notability test since he was a ranked contender. Mentioning Billy as a piece of trivia in a bio of Jimmy, were it to exist, would suffice.--Matt1978 22:21, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
