[edit] Premiere of a TV show in the US is notable?

Someone has made an entry regarding the premiere of a TV show in the US (in the "fiction" section). I don't think that this is notable and I propose to delete this entry. I welcome your thoughts. Thanks, Hu Gadarn 15:25, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I would delete it. Seems like an end run around the non-notable event deletion. It is not fictional, it's a real event, just not very noteworthy. -- Borameer ™ 15:37, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] TV game/reality show finalists are notable?

Someone has added "Sanjaya Malakar, American Idol finalist". I propose that finalists in TV shows are not noteable and hat they be deleted. Any thoughts on this? Thanks, Hu Gadarn 04:55, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

But you know, he is an especially notable one, we should most definitely keep it. Addieshae 02:20, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 1987 - At his residence in Afghanistan, Osama bin Laden launches al Qaeda.

I can't find any other reference to this supposed founding date, amongst others, not in the article about al Qaeda. From looking trough google results, I must conclude that the best that's known is that Al Qaeda was bounded somewhere 1987-1988ish, googling for this exact date doesn't yield any result relating to Al Qaeda. --Jeroen@wolffelaar.nl 145.97.220.22 01:06, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
