[edit] Benjamin Goodman II

Believe entire contents to be nonsense: Benny Goodman did not have a son, and there is no writer of this name creditted on the IMDB page for Good Times. Listing for deletion instead of speedy deletion just in case someone knows differently. Only Google hits from name derived from this page & no internal links to it. JennyRad 20:16, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

When I cleaned up this article, I also thought it sounded like pure nonsense... but it's your call. I'm not sure on the specifics. --Samvscat 06:51, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Personally, I found this article to be thorough, concise, well researched, and inexpressibly usefull in my scholarly pursuits. I believe this article to be one of the greatest assets to the online wikipedia research community, and it would cause me and countless others indescribable grief to witness the deletion of this rare gem. knowledgeable 07:24, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

• Strong delete, looks like a hoax, and borders on nonsense. If there is a Benjamin Goodman II he doesn't turn up in a google search, and therefore doesn't meet WP:BIO. DVD+ R/W 01:38, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete- Most likely a hoax. If it's not a hoax, it doesn't meet WP:BIO because you generally don't become important yourself by being related to an important person. Reyk _YO! 02:37, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

• Strong delete: update: any bio that I could find shows Benny Goodman never had a son. Added hoax template. Time has expired on this nonsense. --Samvscat 10:41, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
