  • Redirect to It Takes a Thief (2005 TV series). Also would like to note that Matt Johnston is the name of a famous stunt double [1], though the two are obviously different people.--☆TBC☆ (aka Tree Biting Conspiracy) 11:28, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - with no redirect per TBC. Wickethewok 13:19, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep. Info on Matt Johnston can be merged into the It Takes a Thief (2005 TV series) article. Then leave a redirect. --Uncle Ed 16:48, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep how does covering this harm anything? Wikipedia is not paper. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Derex (talk • contribs)
    • Comment Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and thus covers only encyclopedic content. WP:BIO and WP:NN outline what must be satisfied for a biography to be included. This isn't an issue of harm, it is an issue of what Wikipedia is and is not for. Kershner 21:08, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment. I just did a good-sized revision of It Takes a Thief (2005 TV series), and added a fair amount of information on the hosts. I didn't use any information from this article, since none of it is sourced and I couldn't find one. If the end result of this is Keep, the info can be copied over. Otherwise, this article should probably either be redirected, or maybe deleted so an article on the stuntman can be made (who may be notable enough, he's done a lot of work on a lot of famous films.)
  • Strong Delete, do not redirect. No notability. Likely Vanity page Bwithh 17:57, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete This appears to be a vanity page and reads like a mini-bio an agent might send out. Anon Y. Mouse 21:31, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete nn bio, possibly qualify {{db-bio}}. If it does not, then it's failing WP:BIO anyways. --WinHunter (talk) 16:42, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect as per TBC. -- MOE.RON talk | done | doing 20:14, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
