Joseph Kazer

 * — (View AfD)

WWII soldier who won a Silver Star for bravery in one battle. Is that enough? I don't think so. Article is unsourced. NawlinWiki 01:21, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete A google search of "Joseph Kazer" only produced mirrored wikipedia articles. Unsourced and marginally-notable. Shagmaestro 01:28, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete The Silver Star is a medal which is awarded to members from all 4 branches of the US military. According to this book by Chris Hedges, during WWII, just one branch, the US Army, awarded roughly 75,000 Silver Stars. This doesn't mean that this guy wasn't heroic (assuming that reliable sources turn up supporting the article) - just that he's not encyclopedically notable. Also, Wikipedia is not a memorial.

 * Delete If it were in a book, I'd enjoy the passage, but unfortunately, Joseph Kazer doesn't have a place on Wikipedia - JNighthawk 12:13, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete I hate sounding like a copy cat but defiantly not notable — Preceding unsigned comment added by Seadog.M.S (talk • contribs)
 * Delete. Looking beyond issues of notability, the article has a copyright mark at the bottom. Either it's copied from somewhere (and should be deleted), or it was contributed by someone who didn't understand the GFDL. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 17:31, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
