Chris Bowers
Blogger who appears to be unknown (by google hits) outside of his blog site BrainyBroad 05:16, 30 October 2005 (UTC) According to the Truthlaidbear, this site is in the top 40 in terms of traffic see. Capitalistroadster 05:59, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Non notable.--  Dak ota  05:25, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. One of the founders of MyDD one of the most notable leftwing blogs see . Over 85000 hits for "Chris Bowers" many of which relate to him see
 * MyDD may be popular, but that doesn't translate to Mr. Bowers needing his own page. Only roughly 8 out of the first 4 pages of google hits may refer to him.  (There are an awful lot of other Chris Bowerses out there.)  I wouldn't oppose "keep & cleanup" if there was anything else to say besides "He writes for a popular leftwing blog."

 * Mr. Bowers not needing his own page doesn't translate to a delete, though. It translates to a merge. Jacqui  ★ 15:28, 31 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Merge and redirect to MyDD. Andrew Levine 07:37, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I speedied this as an A7, then I realized an editor had objected to a speedy alreasy on the talk page. I personally think it's an A7, but since there's disagreement, delete slowly.  Maybe the website is significant, I can't tell from the article.  But this guy is "a blogger" for it?  No reason for an article here, in my opinion.  A redirect doesn't seem neccessary either.

 * Merge with MyDD which is a pretty popular political blog, invited to the Democratic National Convention in Boston last year. Jessamyn 22:28, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with MyDD. Notability and verifiability already established by above. However, there's not much to actually say about MyDD unless you include its writer in it, as that's who's asserting the opinions, etc. Jacqui  ★ 15:27, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect. Sdedeo 01:04, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
