[edit] John "Kat" Brooks

Random guy who was injured during a shooting, with no other claim to fame. The incident itself is well covered at Dimebag Darrell. Dtcdthingy 22:48, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Sad to say, having a famous and tragic death isn't enough to merit inclusion here. Most of the people who died in 9/11 don't even have articles, and those would be probably the most newsworthy, notable deaths of our times. Crabapplecove 00:03, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete or redirect to Dimebag Darrell#Death There may be one or two salveagable sentences or references to add to that section of the Darrell article. Pascal.Tesson 03:20, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as he is related to a famous death. Also helps that he has parts in band's history, videos, behind the music show, etc. Searching for "kat pantera" gives 280,000 google hits. Arbusto 01:22, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

 AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Delete. I would have to say on balance this guy is not particularly notable nor is this likely to change. --Dhartung | Talk 08:36, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Dimebag Darrell#Death. --Wareq 07:40, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Arbustoo. --badlydrawnjeff talk 16:22, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Arbustoo. The history with Pantera adds encyclopedic merit in addition to the involvement with the Dimebag Darrell incident. Agne 00:06, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
