Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jonnie Stewart


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result was delete. The delete arguments were stronger than the keep arguments, and this certainly has the look of a vanity article. The references, as noted, are very week. The failed political career is not notable. But still, it was a close call...almost a no consensus, but in the end, there just wasn't enough of a case made for notability for the article to stay. —Doug Bell talk 05:17, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Jonnie Stewart

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable wrestler, and his only claim to fame was being mistaken for the comedian Jon Stewart due to their similiar names. TJ Spyke 23:13, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, per nom. Also, some of his "sources" are pretty dodgy: "Official Jonnie Stewart bio at the AWA headquarters." -- Scorpion 00:05, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete although you have to admit it's mildly comedic that such a non-entity has his own page, and a rather wordy one at that. Suriel1981 02:09, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * The page is self created vanity project. If you look at the edit history of the creator, you can see statements like "Photo rights owned by myself, Jon Stewart." -- Scorpion 02:38, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * That should speed up the deletion process, right? Suriel1981 03:28, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and Cleanup It looks a good size article. I've never heard of this person and I think it really needs to get cleaned up as well. Davnel03 19:49, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * So your saying keep just because it's a good sized article? I could write a good sized article on myself too, but that wouldn't be a reason to keep it. -- Scorpion 19:56, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, who?«»bd(talk stalk) 21:25, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. He asserts notability: a former wrestler, political career (even though it failed) and so on. A vote with just "who" isn't being helpful. Remember people: it's not about the votes, it's about the arguements for and against the article. RobJ1981 21:54, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete He may be a former wrestler, but a non-notable wrestler. Just running for politcal office isn't notable either. Lrrr IV 03:32, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep His heyday was the late 80's, he did manage to get some national media attention and does own part of a national indy promotion, I do remember him on ESPN. Figurefour1900 21:19, 27 Feburary 2007 (UTC) — Figurefour1900 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * He doesn't own any part of the current AWA, he just helped start it (and it took 9 years it to really get going). TJ Spyke 03:10, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
