[edit] Marco Benz

Originally nominated for deletion by 67.160.9.62; properly tagged by me. His vote per the talk page is: Delete. "vote for deletion: this is vanity" Kinu 05:38, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per nominator. This is somewhat useless. Given his lack of Wiki-worth accomplishments, his only claim to fame, being a descendant of "the" Benz, hardly mandates having a separate article on him. --Kinu 05:40, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Did you know that lots of famous people have had children? --Fuhghettaboutit 06:01, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete see above. --djrobgordon 08:23, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

KEEP He is a U.S. Army soldier that has been reconginzed by the United States Army for his accomplishments. He is in the same category as Pat Tillman, who put aside their monetary aspirations because of their fame of name and money and served in the United States Army to fight against terrorism.

KEEP KEEP TO be recognized as a Poster acoss the nation of the United States to recruit soldiers is worthy of its own by Marco Benz to be chosen. The U.S. Navy has done so with Marta_Tuyet_Dodd and she is there is a notable her own here on wikipedia. Saigon76nyc 18:02, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment: Can you provide citations of reliable sources to support that? Stifle 14:20, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. An argument for "keep" was posted on my user discussion page to which I responded, and I think that debate more properly belongs here, so it is reproduced below --Fuhghettaboutit 16:23, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] FYI Marco Benz

Marco Benz was recognized as a Poster acoss the nation of the United States to recruit soldiers is worthy of its own by Marco Benz to be chosen. The U.S. Navy has done so with Marta_Tuyet_Dodd and she is there is a notable her own here on wikipedia.Saigon76nyc 14:18, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

FYI: Marta Tuyet Dodd was:
1) The first Vietnamese-American to be was selected as a Recruiting Poster for the United States Armed Forces out of a selection process of 17 Sailors throughout the world for the campaign, which was featured in The Navy Times;
2) Is the webmaster of "Navy Girl" which describes her personal experiences and her desire to serve her country;
3) Navy Girl has had nearly 904,250 hits since she started it a year and a half ago;
4) She also established a e-newsletter called called "One Military Parent" for members of all branches of the military.
In Contradistinction, Marco Benz
1) Has also ben claimed by you (I think) to have been given poster status by the military, still unsubstantiated;
2) Happens to be a descendant of someone notable which is irrelevant to his own notability; and
3) Nothing else.
I invite you to make your case more convincingly. --Fuhghettaboutit 16:13, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
