WP:NOTMEMORIAL and WP:SINGLEEVENT apply. Everything relevant here is already at Columbine High School massacre. There's really no reason for this man to have his own article. Beerest355 Talk 23:45, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep - important individual who helped hundreds of students to safety. Also per WP:GNG, WP:NOTMEMORIAL does not apply here.--BabbaQ (talk) 09:20, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Columbine High School massacre. He is known only fort his incident and nothing else.  A standalone article is not justified. -- Whpq (talk) 16:21, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect as proposed above by Whpq as notability is derived from a WP:SINGLEEVENT. He was a selfless individual who lost his life at a significant event and is rightfully included in the article about the event. Kooky2 (talk) 10:23, 17 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Redirect - Redirecting this to Columbine High School massacre seems to make more sense, as he is associated with that event only. More information about him that comes to light could be added there. A stand-alone article for one event, which put him in the news because of the tragedy, seems to be unjustified.--Zananiri (talk) 10:43, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
