Leroy Brown
patent nonsense CH (talk) 06:25, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
 * If we had an article on the notable song Bad, Bad Leroy Brown by Jim Croce which reached the top of the US charts in 1973, we could redirect to that. . As it is, the article doesn't appear to be notable so delete. Capitalistroadster 07:11, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
 * It seems that there are a number of notable Leroy Browns according to What Links Here including a 1924 silver medallist in the long jump, a wrestler and of course Bad, Bad Leroy Brown as in the #1 US hit by Jim Croce. It was even the name of a horse in the 2004 Olympics ridden by a Russian equestrian competitor. It should be a disambiguation page. Capitalistroadster 07:18, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. It should be a disambiguation page once articles on those people and horses are written. Right now it would be a disambig page with nothing but red links, and red links are dangerous vandalism fodder. --Angr/undefined 07:28, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, this is nothing more than an elaborate dictionary definition to justify the last line. A scene from a game is not worth a seperate entry. - Mgm|(talk) 09:29, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as patent nonsense. The guy who became a battlecry - who is notable, as the story about appeared in the PC Gamer UK magazine, if not others - is Leroy Jenkins. -- Last Malthusian 14:58, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Create disambig here, as per Capitalistroadster . --Jacqui M Schedler 01:30, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
