Gino Castignoli

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

This man's 15 minutes of fame are already over. The only reason that he is in the press is because made a failed attempt to curse the New York Yankees by putting a Red Sox jersey in New Yankee Stadium. If the the jersey had remained there, and there was some sort of "Curse of the Jersey" that was noteable enough to have its own article, then maybe an article for Castignoli would be justifyable (but I'd still vote to merge with Curse of the Jersey. However, the jersey was removed well before any games were played at the stadium, and by the time that the Yankees move in no one will care. Simply put, this article has no staying power.

 * Redirect to New Yankee Stadium, as a reasonable search term, since his action with the jersey is already covered in that article. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 15:17, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Deserves a one-sentence mention in New Yankee Stadium at most; otherwise nothing justifies this article on its own. White 720 (talk) 18:58, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep You guys obviously don't follow baseball; this will be a historical fact one day. This article is verifiable and the act it describes is noteable. Strong keep. 70.48.220.113 (talk) 20:54, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
