[edit] Alan Wong

Biography that does not meet the criteria of WP:BIO. —Brim 09:06, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

• While he does have more claims to fame than the average student bio, it is not enough for mine. Delete. Capitalistroadster 09:42, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - I'm very borderline on this one. Lots of claims to notoriety, seems like a 1 in a million kind of thing, and likely to have a strong political career after leaving school. While I suppose that it could be argued that it falls in to the crystal ball category for deletion, there seems to be enough articles written about him and he seems to have affected enough people to be noteworthy enough.

• Keep. Very local news at the moment, but unlike most local news (and most national news for that matter) interesting enough to keep, even if 'being interesting' isn't necessarily an official criteria for inclusion. Among other notable things about the story, I did smile at the superintendent's letter to the students which told them, without a trace of irony, to "focus on issues that are directly related to student concerns and perspectives, such as... student bathrooms". --Last Malthusian 12:06, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

• Weak Keep. -Tim Rhymeless (Er...let's shimmy) 22:50, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
• A college student who was a (non-voting) student rep to a municipal school board and an instigator of a dismissed lawsuit? That's it? Not even close. Delete. --Calton | Talk 01:12, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete look at the links - this is all self promotion. We don't have pages for the other members of the municipal school board, why should we have a page for the one non-voting member? --Bachrach44 22:20, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete fails WP:BIO --Jaranda ^{wat's sup} 01:56, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. I agree with the above comments. Enochlau 09:29, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
