Alleged to have thrown a shoe at a Chinese Premier. Not notable (yet, if ever) in my books. Longhair\talk 12:43, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge to Muntadhar al-Zaidi. Definitely fails WP:ONEEVENT, but could be mentioned as a copycat of al-Zaidi, the Bush shoe thrower.  Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 14:03, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * There already appears to be an entry for this event in the Muntadhar al-Zaidi article. -- Longhair\talk 14:18, 10 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge to Wen Jiabao or keep. I think it is best to keep a short page with Martin Jahnke's detailed info and link it to Wen Jiabao's page's shoe throwing incident. We should avoid give him too much coverage in Wen Jiabao's page. However, I do not agree to link this entry with al-Zaidi's page since he is from a third party country which has no involvement of the alleged issue he is trying to protest. Martin Jahnke is widely condemned for his behavior. All these make him substantially different from al-Zaidi. Bottomline is not all the shoe-throwers are the same Roc999 (talk) 02:11, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - non-notable Cuñado  ☼ -  Talk  19:05, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - Too many to list on failing WP:Guidelines...His name can be mentioned in Wen Jiabao's entry or Muntadhar al-Zaidi's entry or we can create a List of shoe throwers to world leaders, but keeping his wiki entry is a waste of bandwidth. TheAsianGURU (talk) 20:53, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
