[edit] Louie Dog

I came across this page while clicking random button. I don't think this dog is significant enough to have its own article, a mere mentioning in the band's article would do. So I vote for Delete. --Tone 21:06, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment If the article is deleted, need to either kill the redirect at Lou dog, or change it to redirect to Lou Dog (which may have notability issues of its own). Fan1967 14:29, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Wikipedia is not a memorial to the dead, even nice old-age dogs.  (aeropagitica)  (talk)  21:29, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete nn canine. Fan1967 22:34, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. DarthVader 22:46, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Merge and Redirect per below. At first I thought the mention of "dog" in the nomination text was a metaphor of some sort. Cute dog but...--Fuhghettaboutit 23:25, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
• Sorry if this objection isn't formatted correctly. I would say that this article is definitely eligible for inclusion in wikipedia. It would obviously seem obscure to someone unfamiliar with Sublime, but to followers of the band, he is EXTREMELY well known. He was featured on the cover of one major release, inside the liners of all others, and on the cover of a number of bootlegs. Furthermore, he was prominently featured in the lyrics of numerous prominent songs - including the famous singles "What I Got" and "Garden Grove". Considering that there is a place for "Yankees Sucks" articles on wiki - basically on pop culture references pertinent only to a certain demographic - I think we can fit in a Lou Dog entry. I would strongly encourage the Wiki Gods to leave this article intact. If putting in pictures of Lou Dog or references, please let me know. I strongly vote to keep.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.15.56.224 (talk • contribs) .
• Delete I think the dog is somewhat notable, but all relevant info is in the Bradley Nowell article already. No need for main article. -- Samir (the scope) धर्म 03:17, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Bradley Nowell, which features similar content in the section Bradley_Nowell#Bradley_Nowell.27s_Dalmatian.2C_.22Lou_Dog.22. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 19:30, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

There's a little bit of extra content that could be merged as well (the stuff about the contract and the ashes). -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 19:32, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
