 * Delete Google News only turns up the subjects website. Appears to be self-promotion or WP:ADV and does not appear to satisfy general notability guideline or any other notability standard that I can find.--Paul McDonald (talk) 18:41, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete -- or, if thought appropriate, redirect to an article associated with the election in Nevada's second congressional district in the 2010 Democratic primary, which is, I believe, policy under WP:POLITICIAN. I can't see any other reason to retain this article based on what I see, and on a brief search; notability is certainly asserted but I don't see anything that meets Wikipedia's policies, at least as far as I understand how notability works with respect to lawyers at trial.

 * Delete. Unnotable attorney who had an arguably notable case, but notability is not inherited. TJRC (talk) 00:26, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment: as a matter of housekeeping, if this article is deleted, Ken McKenna (footballer) should be returned to Ken McKenna, where it lived until it was moved to make way for this page. Ken McKenna is currently a disambiguation page listing only the footballer and the attorney, and if Ken McKenna (attorney) is deleted there will no longer be any disambiguity.

 * Merge and redirect to Better By You, Better Than Me or Judas Priest. Backmasking might be another possibility. "Merge" because there are a few relevant details in this article that are not in the aforementioned articles; "redirect" because they're cheap. The coverage and impact of the civil suit would be deserving of a stand alone article, and that would eventually be the best target for a redirect. Location (talk) 02:33, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Is "Ken McKenna (attorney)" a likely search term? Although redirects are cheap, I don't see what even this cheap redirect would buy Wikipedia.  At most, I think, a hatnote to Better By You, Better Than Me on Ken McKenna when Ken McKenna (footballer) is moved back. TJRC (talk) 20:20, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
 * You are correct. No one is likely to search the name with "(attorney)" attached to it. Location (talk) 20:43, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
 * A very good point about the merge, though; there were a couple lines of info not present in the target article; I've added them. Even if this article is retained, they're on-topic for that article.


 * Redirect to Better By You, Better Than Me as required by the attribution policy. As content from this article has been merged there, this article must be retained as a redirect, as otherwise the attribution chain is broken and the text in Better By You, Better Than Me becomes a WP:COPYVIO. - The Bushranger One ping only 00:53, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
