John Wendell Haney
Haney was a politician in the Illinois chapter of DeMolay, which appears to be the junior freemasons. I don't think this effectively establishes his notability. -- Kjkolb 12:49, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Freemasonry is much older and much bigger than The United States and we have figures in the American government included...DeMolay is a branch of Masonry for the children of Masons, this person should be included...HoratioVitero 17:06, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
 * DeleteFreemasonry is notable, a particular Freemason is not, unless he is notable for some other reason. Logophile 17:41, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Being a leader of a statewide youth organization is not enough to warrant a Wikipedia article. --Metropolitan90 23:50, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as per Logophile and Metropolitan90. -- MCB 17:51, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, no redirect, per Log and Met. Barno 05:57, 19 September 2005 (UTC)Keep.  Haney is the most famous IL DeMolay member ever.
 * Keep Haney is infamous, to not have him would be the same as not having bill clinton. You need to keep him up. (Vote by Petebruso, first edit)
 * Delete Non-notable. And your comment regarding Bill Clinton gets my "most assbackwards reasoning of the day" award. Congratulations. Soltak | Talk 21:51, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, it's verifiable and wiki isn't paper. It doesn't come under any point at What Wikipedia is not. ··gracefool |&#9786; 17:34, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
