[edit] Ian Yaffe

A college kid who wants to be in wikipedia because he volunteered at a soup kitchen. Non-notable. --Quasipalm 03:39, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. Not notable [1].

The Fact of the matter is, having known Ian personally and attended school with him (and knowing he didn't write this article) he is an influential individual within the Washington DC community... you may refer to him as a college kid but he is much more... In his years not only is he on the board of directors of the largest food kitchen in DC, but he is also a local hero for his work as a firefighter and other charitable contributions. Wikipedia chronicles Hitler, Stalin, Tojo and many others, but a good guy who strives to use his position in society to help others is "not notable" and BTW he lives in DC not Australia, idiot

  • Delete ∾ I lived in the Washington DC suburbs for 9 years. Never heard of the guy. So he's not even that notable or influential within DC. → Ξxtreme Unction {yakłblah} 14:58, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

You lived in the suburbs... as in Potomac where your idea of charity and good deeds is a 10,000 dollar check, and the only people you know go to your country club?
