Dean Spears
Just found this while searching for something on Wikipedia. It's an article with no inbound links, and has gone under the radar since June. It's a guy still in college who, while if you read the external links got extremely good grades in high school (a Presidential Scholar in 2001), hasn't actually done anything in his career. If he becomes a Senator or something, then he can rightfully have an article, and won't be ashamed to link to it from other pages. Harro5 03:33, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy or slow delete. Either way... Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  04:02, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Weak keep based on the links to USA Today and Bush's speech. National attention I suppose, but the article should highlight the reasons better - he did something for some nursing home or what not. Flyboy Will 04:11, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Getting his name and face into the paper (albeit important ones) a few times in 2001 for good grades doesn't warrant inclusion if he has done nothing major since.—Stombs 04:55, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
