[edit] Michael Mangus

Three editors have flagged this for notability (removed) and one for prod. I don't claim to know much about debaters, but making it to the finals in a school event doesn't cut it for me. Kchase02 (T) 02:19, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete I don't think a blank page could assert less notability. Also, I'm particularly fond of the phrase, "he managed to coin a phrase that would ring throughout the debate world for eternity." That's a good one. -- Kicking222 02:28, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete. He appears to have gotten pretty far in a few major divisions, but it seems like vanity to me. It's also POV. --Flyne 03:33, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Extreme self-agrandizement. Zero notability. TRosenbaum 04:24, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Someone who got through to the quarter-finals of a school/college debating competition & with no other achievements is hardly notable by WP:BIO standards.  (aeropagitica)  (talk)  06:10, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Vanity, I do know a bit about debating but this is completly NN Ydam 09:57, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete A nobody delete as per Vanity. --DV8 2XL 12:45, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Mwmoretti left this comment on the article's talk page: Mangus is one of the best and most respected debaters in the country. This article should stay. This is not a withdrawal by nominator. I'm just the messenger and I still think it ought to be deleted. --Kchase02 (T) 19:18, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
