Michael Kight
This article has been speedied as CSD A7, although the creator objects that it does not meet A7 criteria, as this person is notable to 500 people at a school (See the talk page.)  light darkness (talk) 00:51, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - Non-notable bio. Doesn't meet WP:BIO -- light  darkness (talk) 00:51, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BIO. Middle school principals are not inherent notable on their own; they should be mentioned and unlinked at their school's article. -- Kinu  t /c  00:53, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete, no matter what weird rationales the article creator keeps coming up with ("The user adding the SD tag isn't an admin"). --Calton | Talk 01:01, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Allowing only admins to add SD tags would rather defeat their purpose. SD tags are meant as a way of saying "I think this article has to be deleted, but I am physically unable to do so, so I want an admin to come by and delete it for me". If an admin finds an article that he/she thinks has to be deleted, he/she can go right ahead and delete it. J I P  | Talk 12:16, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, per Article 7 of the CSD which states "An article about a real person, group of people, band, or club that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject" should be removed, and I feel that the person in question is of enough importance considering their prominant position in one of the best middle school in Viringia's capital to be spared a few bytes of memory on Wikipedia's servers. But, hey, I wrote the article. I'd be happy with a formal democratic decision either way, I simply objected to the almost instantatious deletion of the article without a proper discussion or vote. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kigoe (talk • contribs)
 * Speedy delete. A receptionist at a large office would be known by 500 people too, but that would hardly be the basis for an encyclopedia article either.  Suggest that author read up on the relevant Wikipedia policies (for example, WP:BIO) to prevent this from hapenning again. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  01:11, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
