[edit] MenTaLguY

Delete, Not sure on this one, but I doubt a contributor to three open source projects is notable - the projects are notable, but he is not. Perhaps he is worthy of mention in the articles about the projects, but I don't think four lines of text about him, two of which are asserting his notability, really belongs on wikipedia -Werdna648 02:09, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

• Delete vanity. His projects may be notable (Inkscape seems to be at least) but I don't really see what useful information an article about this guy could have. We redirect most CEOs to their companies, and this guy isn't a CEO or similar leader... but I guess his name is a vaguely possible search term, so maybe a redirect. He's already mentioned in the Inkscape article for what it's worth. --W.marsh 03:46, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete: Vanity, on the one hand, but it's an article about a screen name. Screen names are not people. As a fictional character, has this fiction achieved sufficiently in the real world? No. The products may work, but the character hasn't. Geogre 13:08, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Inkscape. - Mgm|^(talk) 14:52, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
• Merge any relevant info to Inkscape (actually, "smerge"). Jacqui ^{★ 00:28, 14 November 2005 (UTC)}
