Thomas Wilfred Mulryne OBE
DELETE. Vanity page.
 * Delete - no assertion of notability. Also vanity.  Wickethewok 06:05, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable person -- T B C [[Image:Confused-tpvgames.gif|18px|]] ???  ???   ??? 06:52, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - will investigate later, but OBE in the title is an assertion of notability. Only a few are awarded every year - a public service honour. The article is useless at the moment however.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 11:19, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep did some googling, and I found this about Mulryne and the OBE: ...his name is on there as an honoree. I'm going to say the guy is notable and needs an improved article/stub. Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 12:33, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Here's a link more amenable to the verification process: (a gov.uk link of new honorees) Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 12:36, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete; an OBE is indeed a British honour, but we award about 500 a year so its not the best guide to notability. Also, I'm concerned that the page was started by Wilfredmulyrne and this is the only contribution by this user. Blatant vanity, I'm afraid. JGF Wilks 18:09, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above --Khoikhoi 22:36, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Contentless vanity. Note the OBE in the title. ProhibitOnions 01:16, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep awarded is enough to be notable --Masssiveego 08:21, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment If the decision is to keep this then the 'OBE' part of the title should be removed. I assume it's part of the Style Manual somewhere that we do not include honours in the page title (except in redirects, such as Sir Harrison Birtwistle). JGF Wilks 15:47, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Retired headmaster gets an OBE at retirement as a tribute. As JGF Wilks commented, they give out a lot of these (it's not like a knighthood). If he were American he might get a nice resolution of commendation from Congress, and it would mean about as much, Fan1967 00:18, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
