Jurij I of Halicz
Doesn't establish notability, and Wikipedia is not a genealogy database. Radiant! 09:41, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * 13th century polish monarch. Significant, although the article definately needs expanded. Keep - TB 12:22, 2005 Feb 15 (UTC)
 * Appears, from superficial research, to have been a prince of Galicia (Central Europe). We tend to Keep monarchs who reigned (and send them to Cleanup for cross-linking them to the countries concerned &mdash; Well, whaddayaknow! &#9786;). Compare Jurij II of Halicz.

 * Keep as he was a regnant king, not that I'm a monarchist or anything! BTW, looks like there may be some need to normalize and redirect spelling, as Jurij I appears to be spelled as Yuriy I in Jurij II of Halicz's article. HyperZonk 17:23, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, but plainly needs cleanup and expansion. Wyss 18:06, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, cleanup and expand. Megan1967 00:57, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Censoring people who disagree with you goes against the very idea of Wikipedia. Note that I didn't even vote to delete him, I merely put the matter up for discussion. Please be civil. Radiant! 12:21, Feb 21, 2005 (UTC)
 * Nominating articles on VFD that are obviously not nonsense, vanity or original research - and therefore not valid subjects for deletion in the first place - is a selfish and unneccesary imposition on editors who would rather not have to waste hours of their time ensuring that good content isn't summarily deleted from Wikipedia.--Centauri 13:15, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Marginal agreement with Centauri. While it's important that everyone feel welcome to nominate articles for VfD, it's also important that they consider the cost of doing so.  8 people each spent perhaps 5 minutes researching Jurij I of Halicz to establish he was worthy of an article here - 40 minutes that may have been better spent.  It's not unreasonable to request that a nominator to ask him or herself 'do I believe that the deletion of this article will improve Wikipedia more than 40 minutes of other work would'. - TB 11:06, 2005 Feb 25 (UTC)
