Pat Healy
Non-notable 5-time champion on Jeopardy. Set no major records either. Basically, the only way Healy would deserve an article if all 200 5-time champs since 1984 also got an article. --OntarioQuizzer 03:24, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete. Even as a long-time Jeopardy! fan, I can't see why he deserves his own article (even if it were to be rewritten into a full article).  He's relatively non-notable.  ral315 03:36, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. There's 144 people competing in the Ultimate Tournament of Champions; we don't need an article on every one of them.  Recreate the article if he wins the tournament.  Dave6 05:13, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm glad someone else spotted this, Delete--nixie 05:34, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, delete . And keep an eye out for articles on all 144 contestants that may turn up in the next few weeks. -R. fiend 05:48, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * The funny thing is that Healy's U-ToC game date has not even been announced yet. Also, this does not seem to be an isolated incident from this user (See Votes_for_deletion/The_Story_Of_MY_Life). Should be interesting to see him defend notability on Pat Healy. --OntarioQuizzer 13:09, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable enough yet. Maybe later. Zzyzx11 05:56, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. I was going to suggest including him in a possible list of Jeopardy! Ultimate Tournament of Champions contestants, but I see he's already there. --Deathphoenix 06:32, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, then a guess a redirect there would be fine. Does that page seem a bit like overkill to anyone else though? -R. fiend 07:29, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Which one? Healy? Or U-ToC? --OntarioQuizzer 12:56, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * To clarify, redirect Healy to UToC. (Or delete. Either is fine with me). and the UToC page seems a bit like overkill. Not quite the sort of thing I'd expect from Everyking if it involved Ashlee Simpson, but getting close. -R. fiend 16:13, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, not notable outside of a game show. Megan1967 08:34, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not notable. Trilobite (Talk) 10:44, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. EggplantWizard 17:25, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect, in that order of preference. I think redirection is a little charitable in this case, but I'm willing to go for it if other folks are. BenSamples 04:33, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Question If I make a article for every person who is a 5 time Jeopardy winner can we keep Pat Healy?
