[edit] John Streate
Appears to be non-notable. The only source offered is the second Virginia charter of which the subject of the article is one of what appears to be several hundred names. There's little to no notability or verifiability addressed. Metros232 20:12, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
- Also nominating: Anthony Streate which also appears to be non-notable and non-verifiable.
John Streate was a famous captain of some time but he isn't that well recognised, like Anthony Streate. Its like being Sir William Brockman, there is not that much searches for him and he was involved with a King granting him land, just like John Streate who had land granted to him by James I. At least it puts together pieces of a mostly figured out historical puzzle. kylests —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.21.74.77 (talk • contribs) 21:35, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
- Delete both unless verifiability issue can be addressed. If deleted, no prejudice against re-creation with verification. --AbsolutDan (talk) 21:45, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
- Delete both: being one out of a long list of people is insufficiently notable. See also Wikipedia is not a genealogical dictionary. Tearlach 22:51, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
What if I were to create an article about the Second Virginia Charter and all its people? Let us make a formal speech about this article and I will explain things as you continue to speech........ Go on.--Kylests 04:48, 19 June 2006 (UTC)kylests
- Delete NN. "it puts together pieces of a mostly figured out historical puzzle"; is that original research? --Runcorn 11:04, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
Well, opinions are like assholes, we all have one.--Kylests 20:31, 24 June 2006 (UTC)Kyle Mackenzie Street
