Chuckie Mauk
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable murder victim. Google News Archive only brings up 7 articles about the case. A Google search only brings up 1,150 results. Laladoodle92 (talk) 05:31, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Note to closing Admin – You may want to consider leaving this open 7 days from the 12th. Although the AfD was opened on the 9th the final steps were not completed until the 12th.  ttonyb (talk) 04:17, 13 April 2011 (UTC)


 * This AFD hasnt been correctly made. It has to be place an notice on the articles front page ASAP.--BabbaQ (talk) 17:28, 12 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment – It has been added; however, I must say I would have expected an experienced editor such as yourself to have added it (or at least requested assistance in adding it) when you noted that it was lacking the final steps.  ttonyb  (talk) 03:49, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes.... I agree.--BabbaQ (talk) 16:50, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:VICTIM. I can find more hits with a search of "Chuck Mauk", however, nothing of real substance. Other than the Nancy Grace hit, there really isn't anything beyond local news coverage. Location (talk) 00:39, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - I believe there are reasons to believe that this person became notable beyond his own murder. The Jacob Wetterling connection, reward, nancy grace.. you can say whatever you like about Nancy but when she brings up a case its often highly notable.--BabbaQ (talk) 17:26, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Adding every case that is on Nancy Grace would be like adding every case that's been on Unsolved Mysteries or America's Most Wanted to Wikipedia. This case wasn't on Nancy Grace on a continuous basis (like the Caylee Anthony case) but it was on Nancy Grace as part of a special she was doing on Cold Cases, where her show featured a different cold case everyday. Also, the reward is only $5000; not a notable amount. Laladoodle92 (talk) 00:54, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete doesn't meet WP:VICTIM. we don't create articles for every victim on the basis of a few articles. LibStar (talk) 02:45, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete as per WP:VICTIM. Not notable. - SudoGhost (talk) 01:20, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
