[edit] Edwin Thanhouser

This non-notable article fails WP:BIO and WP:VAIN. It almost looks like a Speedy A-7. --Doc Tropics ^{Message in a bottle} 05:47, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

• Weak keep, although I would be OK with a merge to Thanhouser Company. Not likely WP:VAIN by Mr. Thanhouser himself. Medtopic 08:25, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
• Merge with Thanhouser Company. Also, a WP:VAIN article doesn't have to be written by the subject the article is about.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Porqin (talk • contribs) 13:03, 25 July 2006 (UTC).

  I understand. The remark was made tounge-in-cheek as the guy died over 50 years ago. Medtopic 18:00, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete/Merge I agree merge with Thanhouser Company and delete this article. Aeon ^{Insane Ward} 15:04, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

• Comment: UPDATE - The above points were well taken and I have transferred all the info from Edwin Thanhouser to Thanhouser Company. It's too bad I didn't think to do that before I nom'd it! While the company's article still needs much work, no useful info will be lost if the bio gets deleted now. My apologies for my own confusion, as well as any I've caused for you :) --Doc Tropics ^{Message in a bottle} 19:59, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
