Keith Martin (heavy person)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not a notable person. Only ref in the article is an obituary calling him "World's fattest man". Other refs I find are more obituaries (such as ), the Daily Mail does appear to have mentioned him at least once before his death. He appeared on a Channel 5 show "70 Stone and Almost Dead" (which is likely the reference for some of the information), but that's not sufficient to establish notability. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 03:26, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete Insufficient substantive sources to establish notability, Wikipedia does not need to regurgitate whatever unusual news the Daily Mail decides to disseminate. Reywas92Talk 05:09, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. He barely makes the List of the heaviest people and a link from Keith Martin would be fine. The title of this article is so implausible that a redirect from here wouldn't serve any purpose. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:40, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * If there's a link in a disambiguation page it should also be possible to be presented with a relevant title when putting the name into the search box unless there's a good reason (something better than "implausible") not to. In Special:PrefixIndex/Keith Martin ( there's nothing else for the same person. Peter James (talk) 18:32, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
