Skyler Stone
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

No notability, apparently a vanity article. Previous discussion was erroneously closed when the closing magistrate felt that sources documenting the TV show Con provided notability. This logic is flawed in that the issue here is not whether wikipedia should have an article on Con, (and we do), its ONLY on whether this person (creator of the show) should have his own article even though he has accomplished little besides that show. Furthermore, it is ludicrous that the article on Stone is about 7 times as long as the article on "Con," which I think ran for all of two months. I say lets excise this unneeded article and make mention of Mr. Stone's 5 minutes of fame on the article about "Con," the only place where it belongs. JeanLatore (talk) 20:19, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep on the grounds that just because an editor disagrees with the rationale behind the closing of an AFD, you still can't renominate it only a few days later. That's a case of renominating until a desired outcome is achieved. If you feel the AFD was closed prematurely, it should be discussed with the closing editor. 23skidoo (talk) 22:44, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment it was closed because of bogus and misleading sources provided at the last minute than were purported to be on the subject (Stone) but in fact were not. JeanLatore (talk) 22:50, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep: If you have a problem with the previous closure, talk to the closing admin or go to deletion review  D C Edwards 1966  15:33, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Without regard to the article (which is awful), this nomination smells like a little improper to me... Delicious carbuncle (talk) 18:40, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
 * erroneously closed ??? - that is a Deletion Review problem, it does not warrent a second bite at the apple. Is there an WP:IDONTLIKEIT issue going on here? Keep Exit2DOS2000   •T•C•  03:42, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep not only on the grounds that so far the nominator is the only person to have argued for deletion in now 2 attempts to delete this article in AfD, but also because Skyler Stone is notable for other things besides Con. For example, a Fox pilot called Skyler's Revolution (Hollywood Reporter); roles in movies such as Waiting... and its upcoming sequel Still Waiting... (MTV.com), For Your Consideration (Daily Variety), and the upcoming comedy No Place Like Home (Daily Variety); and a guest role on an episode of CSI: NY (Daily Variety).
