 * Delete - BLP1E is for people who have passing fame for a single event and are otherwise likely to remain of low profile. I was going to argue that the book written about New lifted him out of the "likely to remain of low profile" category, except that upon further research it appears to be written by a related party ("Daniel New") and be largely an attempt at self-promotion.  Given that there does not seem to be a relevant main article to redirect to, delete seems appropriate. - DustFormsWords (talk) 10:55, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
 * New's website identifies Daniel as his father (also that book is self-published).  nableezy  - 14:35, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete: doesn't seem notable to me beyond the single incident and the incident itself does not seem to be sufficiently notable to warrant an article itself. I don't think this would pass the WP:GNG in terms of significant coverage that is independent of the source. — AustralianRupert (talk) 11:00, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
