Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article is about a celebrity child, notability is not inherited. Author removed speedy tag. At best, should be a redirect to Jolie or Pitt.  TN ‑ X - Man  19:33, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

CD#A7 this is a speedy delete candidate. CSD was removed by the creator in contravention of wiki CSD guidelines. AfD is only required if a 3rd person contests CSD. --triwbe (talk) 19:41, 14 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete - it will not be long before someone sites sources (like 2 billion g-hits) about the birth, but I remind those who do WP:NOT. Since all of the sources will be about the single event instead of the person, the notability is not being established.  Mention it in Bard and Angie's articles, but not a separate one yet.

 * Delete - for above reasons, for the child not having done anything of notability, and for Wikipedia not being the place to be a tabloid.--Paul McDonald (talk) 19:44, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per all above. The kid's 2 days old. Few 2-day-olds have achieved much. WP:CRYSTAL also applies. Yes, he's born into money and will probably be decent looking, but there's no way of knowing what he or his sister will end up doing with their lives. Maybe they'll actually stay out of the spotlight. Ahem...  freshacconci  speak to me  19:52, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Why do people always create these? Short of royalty or possibly medical miracles, babies of this age are not notable- we are not a news service. J Milburn (talk) 20:33, 14 July 2008 (UTC)


 * WP:NOTINHERITED isn't a speedy criterion — it's an example of bad reasoning in an essay that serves to guide, but not dictate, the process of building AFD consensus. The article does make a notability claim, and as such AFD is the correct procedure here. That said, the notability claim being made is invalid according to Wikipedia policy on such matters until such time as he has notable accomplishments of his own besides being born to famous parents, so it is an obvious delete even though it doesn't fall under speedy.

 * Delete per all the above. No achievements of his own. --Blanchardb- Me • MyEars • MyMouth -timed 21:04, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to one of the parents. I think its the best course of action here.-- Lenticel ( talk ) 23:01, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete or Redirect to Angelina Jolie. Notability is not inherited. Artene50 (talk) 01:12, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect to Angelina Jolie per precedent and all above. We have been through this before with other celebrity children, including some of Jolie's. In fact, I created Knox Jolie-Pitt as a redirect to Jolie's article in hopes of dissuading the creation of an article such as this. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:21, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable inheritently, has done nothing notable yet (if ever) Jasynnash2 (talk) 12:09, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete and WP:SALT Delete because there is clearly no notability that can be presumed for the subject of this article nor its twin. SALT because rabid Brangelina fans find this sort of WP:CRUFT exremely important and will keep recreating to no end. SWik78 (talk • contribs) 13:12, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. As noted, notability is not inherited. I agree article needs to be salted otherwise people will be recreating it repeatedly. 23skidoo (talk) 14:11, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Notability is not inherited, and Wikipedia is not a newspaper to create article about everything that gets headlines. Mention the child in the articles about the parents. Edison (talk) 18:30, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete this non-notable newborns biography --Rocksanddirt (talk) 18:51, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
