[edit] Willesee family

Willesee family (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Willesee family is a very short list of members of the family that fails purpose of lists. The information already is available in the underlying biography articles, including the family connections. The underlying biography articles are sufficient for navigation purposes and the list is very short and not needed for development. -- Jreferee t/c 15:18, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

• Delete like Birney family below. If these were created by the same person, they could probably be AfD-linked. Just for future reference. GlassCobra 17:16, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - agree that the biography articles in question are sufficient. JavaTenor 18:25, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Delete no notable members apart from the one who already has an article. -- MightyWarrior 22:19, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete - much like the Hawke family article, the problem is not so much the small nmber of entries as the lack of a distinguishable political philosophy linking the family members together. This is more than party membership or representation of the same State. To be a political "family dynasty" would seem to require identificaton of a consistent and distinctive approach to the political issues of the day. The Kennedy family would be a good example. In the absence of a distinctive politifcal approach, the Willesee's are simply two representatives who happen to be related. This is insufficiently notable for an article of this kind.

• Keep and add the next generation of politcal journalists and you will have a real article. Archifile 05:09, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
