I know that there is assertion that he's been referred to by several newspapers -- but is this really more than 15 minutes of fame? I don't think the article establishes persistent notability. Unless notability is further shown, delete. --Nlu (talk) 22:35, 14 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep, if more reliable sources are added, and if the author lengthens the article. Dwilso  22:48, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Strong Keep. I added two references and there were more. This little guy is pretty notable and likely to become more so as he ages. Renee (talk) 00:11, 15 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Strong keep - The fact that the editor proposing deletion did not take the 40 seconds it would have taken to notify the article's creator shows bad faith, and reinforces the suspicion that this is a disruptive proposal. Badagnani (talk) 03:43, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
 * The fact that this editor makes an optional notification supposedly mandatory shows that this keep vote is disruptive. --Nlu (talk) 03:49, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Looks notable to me. Please, assume good faith. Also, nobody's notified the article creator still; I will do so. They're an SPA, so this might be an autobio, but the subject is notable nonetheless. JeremyMcCracken (talk) (contribs) 04:43, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per references in article. --Bardin (talk) 14:47, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
