[edit] Emanuel Wynn

Delete. Contents is "The first pirate who flew the Skull'n'Crossbones." Because that's not an assertion of notability, I applied {{db-bio}}, which was removed by another user, who thinks it surely is, see my talk page. Let AfD decide. - the.crazy.russian τ ç ë 23:52, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

If they can find more on him other than, the semi-sentence(It doesn't have a period) already there, and make it into a stub, very weak keep.--Dp462090 | Talk | Contrib | 00:04, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep. It may not be a whole lot of information, but it is verifiable. I think there might be a slight possibility for being improved - strangely enough, putting it up here is the most likely way for any improvements to be made and it not just being a stub that sits in the dust for years.

  • Keep. This is the worst kind of nomination. No good reason given for deletion. Instead of reaching for the delete button, a moment's research would have enabled you to expand this article. Stop trying to undo other's hard work, and contribute something constructive! For great justice. 03:19, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Being the first pirate to fly the Jolly Roger is an assertion of notability, and, if that's verifiable, would warrant having an article for him. --Metropolitan90 04:00, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, article as written now has enough information and historical interest to warrant a keep. Kuru talk 04:14, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Surely I vote Keep. Monicasdude 14:13, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Surely I now change my vote and revoke the nomination. The article has been sufficiently expanded. Thank you AfD. Thank you very much, Monicasdude. Speedy Keep Please. - the.crazy.russian τ ç ë 14:21, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
      • Not on a cosmic scale, ;) but it is pretty much the worst thing (apart from outright vandalism) that you could do on Wikipedia. Not only do you not spend your time actually writing articles or improving them, but you tie up other editors time who could also be writing or editing. For great justice. 17:33, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
