Brinkman v. Miami University

 * — (View AfD)

This is an unsourced stub about a non-notable legal case. The case was dismissed at the trial level because the Plaintiff lacked standing to challenge the University's actions. It therefore produced no binding precedent on the underlying issue of the constitutionality of same-sex benefit programs. Heybrent 07:05, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, it is well-sourced. And more sources are easily available. Google gives 10k of hits  on both sides of the debate , and there are neutral reliable sources , and media attention . Plenty more where that came from. I see no reason not to keep. --Docg 10:40, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Much ado about nothing. Xiner (talk, email) 19:33, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Its the subject of multiple non trivial sources. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 06:48, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per DocG. AndyJones 14:14, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep if all the other sources mentioned above by Doc in the AfD debate are added to the article. Benefits for same-sex couples are a generally interesting issue and the person bringing the suit was an elected official. This kind of topic wouldn't justify a huge article but this one is about the right size. EdJohnston 21:06, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
