Just another US attorney who happened to prosecute a couple of not especially high profile cases. Mangoe (talk) 00:59, 26 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Weak keep I see potential for the article to be expanded. --Cutno (talk) 01:06, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. US Attorneys are notable, and generally have a relative abundance of sources. Rebecca (talk) 01:11, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's a crappy article, because it stops keeping up with this guy's career as of a couple of years ago.  He's a big deal in Delaware.  Here's more references to get it up to date.      Edward Vielmetti (talk) 07:00, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 * All those links focus on him being a nominee. If he gets the post, OK, then I would agree, he would (by our IMO weak standards) be notable. THe final article suggests that this might not ever happen. Mangoe (talk) 11:29, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 * His notability isn't based around being a nominee for a judgeship, although that helps - it's around him being a US attorney, and a reasonably high-profile about that. We have good, well-sourced articles about plenty of US attorneys, precisely because they tend to be clearly notable. Rebecca (talk) 11:44, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
