Edward P. Felt

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Edward Felt is notable only for making a call from United Airlines Flight 93, which is something many passengers did. As quoted in WP:ONEEVENT: If reliable sources only cover the person in the context of a particular event, then a separate biography is unlikely to be warranted.

 * Delete per WP:NOT and WP:ONEEVENT. Making a 911 call, no matter the circumstances, is not a notable activity. There is no indication of other basis for notability, unless one counts having a building named after you by your company, which again does not seem to be a basis for notability. --Dhartung | Talk 19:02, 28 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Abstain — I created the page because I thought Ed was notable for having made (possibly) the last call from the plane before it went down. Others apparently felt so as well from the previous discussion, as well as there being mention of his call in external sources. However, since he was an associate of mine, in the interests of fairness I have chosen to abstain from participating in any decision about deleting/keeping the article. — Loadmaster (talk) 19:26, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: CeeCee Lyles also made a call at the same time (09:58) on her cell phone to her husband and she does not have an article to her name. Even having left a recording from a previous call she made. -- VegitaU (talk) 20:37, 28 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete, not notable outside the 93 flight to warrant a Biography. He was part of a notable but one time event, which fails WP:BLP criteria for article creation. Rasadam (talk) 18:56, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
