 * Keep - historic event, though admittedly a current news item. I was about to add the current-event template. What does "nn" mean? --Cheese Sandwich 03:15, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * A search for "nn" reveals that it probably means "night-night". As good a reason as any for deletion of this article, I suppose. --Cheese Sandwich 03:18, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * comment: nn means not-notable. Frankly, I'm having a hard time figuring out why this is encyclopedic, but I'll abstain. Mmmbeer 03:47, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * It stands for non-notable, and is a reference to the subject failing, in the voter's judgement, the various options at WP:Importance, or in the case of a person, usually more importantly WP:BIO. In reference to the appropriate material, it might also be referring to WP:FICT, WP:MUSIC or a number of other options. Note that at least most of those documents are disputed and none is policy although some carry considerable weight. posted after edit conflict -Splash 03:48, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, is probably notable enough just for setting out on a serious attempt. Moreover, whatever the outcome (success, failure, death etc) he is almost certain to acquire notability from that. -Splash 03:48, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * According to the source article this guy has had some other interesting exploits: "No stranger to adventure, Mee has undertaken several Arctic expeditions, including one in 2003 when he was trapped in pack ice and attacked by a musk ox which broke four of his ribs." I could probably expand this article a bit. --Cheese Sandwich 05:17, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Note that Cheese Sandwich created the article. Wyss 06:42, 20 August 2005 (UTC)


 * Weak Delete - pending the (hopefully successful) outcome of the voyage. Perhaps clean up into an biographical article about all of Mee's adventures. PlainSight 13:52, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep - Currently, this has the implications of a possible historic world-record. If it happens to fail, at least this such feat had been attempted. UniReb 22:09, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Seems moderately notable already, although I'm slightly concerned by the guy's squashed head. Flowerparty  talk 00:42, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep as per Splash, UniReb etc. --Agamemnon2 11:11, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
