[edit] Chesa Boudin

Chesa Boudin (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Delete, Contrary to WP:Notability, is son of someone famous only. Pharmboy 23:53, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep I read his book - Letters from Young Activists. --Sulphite76— Sulphite76 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • Delete. The children of notable people are not inherently notable. There are not sufficient independent reliable sources to meet WP:BIO. The interview is about his mother, not him; the other links are items he wrote. Further, no assertions are made that he is notable in his own right as an author. —C.Fred (talk) 00:41, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge to Kathy Boudin until independent notability is established. The Rhodes Scholarship almost makes it but I don't think the community quite believes that's an automatic. --Dhartung | Talk 01:51, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Notable enough on his own - Sulphite76— Sulphite76 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • comment: Sulphite and the unsigned above: ILIKE is considered a non-reason to keep an article, is it not?. Pharmboy 17:59, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Sulphite76 edit error The last KEEP is once again Sulphite, so still only one is requesting a KEEP. I took that your lack of signing the KEEP request TWICE was a good faith error, and assigned your name (per the history) in that good faith. Since you already asked for a KEEP earlier, might you consider not putting the same request TWICE in the future, to prevent confusion? Pharmboy 18:13, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Not me Second comment was NOT ME. How did it register as being my comment? Strange and unnerving Sulphite76— Sulphite76 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • Figured it out - it was an office-mate. Sulphite76— Sulphite76 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
    • No it wasn't. Stop lying, sockpuppet. Wikipedia doesn't sign your username as Sulphite76 based on your IP address. A thousand different registered users can be logged into Wikipedia on the same IP address at the same time and their signatures will all be different, unless they log out. 172.188.213.156 06:31, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Easy 172.188.213.156 If you bothered to read the comments above, you would know that Pharmboy ADDED my signature to an anonymous comment. Wikipedia didn't sign my name to a comment that wasn't mine - Pharmboy did. I can only assume he did so because my officemate and I both made comments from the same IP address (although from different computers), and her comment was unsigned. It was a fair assumption and an honest mistake. It is true that I am new here, but I thought this was a community that welcomed the contributions of newcomers. Please treat me with respect and I will do the same with you. Sulphite76 02:20,30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • My comment, not Sulphite76 - I wrote that comment, same IP address, different person. The assumption Pharmboy made was wrong but I will assume it was a "good faith error" - Sparkplug0624— Sparkplug0624 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
    • No good faith for you. You forgot to sign out of your second account before adding that second comment. It's obvious what you're doing, people aren't stupid around here (not including you). 172.188.213.156 06:35, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom & C.Fred. Not quite notable. --Evb-wiki 14:50, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom, C.Fred and Evb-wiki. Bearian 15:19, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep Although being a Rhodes scholar alone does not give notability, it IS nonetheless a mark of distinction: only 32 U.S. students are nominated per year. As per Dhartung alternatively merge to Kathy Boudin. Mediamaker 14:14, 28 July 2007 (UTC)— Mediamaker (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • Delete per C.Fred. Notability isn't inherited. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 22:18, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
