Delete, non-notable, ahem... "ninja". JBsupreme ( talk ) 19:57, 18 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. The subject doesn't seem to pass WP:ENTERTAINER or WP:BIO in general. — Rankiri (talk) 20:00, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per Rankiri. -RobertMel (talk) 20:20, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. WP:NOT and fails WP:ENTERTAINER. Pcap ping  00:31, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete as this fails WP:ENTERTAINER and the more general WP:BIO guidelines. RFerreira (talk) 02:18, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep We've already had this debate once before and it was decided to keep the page. How many times can an article be brought up for deletion? MaxMercy (talk) 15:17, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
 * When? According to your contribution history, this and WP:Articles for deletion/AC Transit Bus fight are your only AfD discussions. — Rankiri (talk) 15:25, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps I'm confused, but here in the history it shows that a speedy deletion tag was removed because the article had ample news coverage and that it was a "robust indicator of significance." MaxMercy (talk) 20:10, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Big difference. Speedy is a much lower threshold to survive than AfD. AfD requires passing either the WP:GNG or one of the additionals WP:BIO in this case. Passing that particular speedy just requires an assertion of notability, not that it actually get there.Horrorshowj (talk) 13:24, 20 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete - one of the two references is completely incidental, and for a subject to be deemed notable by local news coverage only he would need far more than one significant mention. Let me know if some solid sources are found; I'll gladly reconsider.--otherlleft 14:05, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I found another Jacksonville Daily News story at This is the only daily newspaper in the region. MaxMercy (talk) 15:54, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think that a single article in a seemingly non-notable small-town newspaper—particularly one that pays attention to unfounded rumors and user comments on YouTube—can be seen as significant coverage by reliable secondary sources. — Rankiri (talk) 16:28, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
