[edit] Art Webb 1986

Only claim to fame seems to be that he is related to a regular on an MTV show. Delete unless someone can tell me something about Viva La Bam that I don't know. JHMM13 (T | C) 23:37, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep - Actually, he's listed 2 claims to fame. Being Rake Yohn's brother AND being seen on the CKY (videos). And he managed those 2 claims to fame in just 1 line. Looking him up on Google [1] that particular claim to fame warrants 4,590 hits by itself. Yet for some bizarre reason, not all reviews of CKY have Art Webb mentioned - and IMDB doesn't list him in the credits [2] or at least not under the name "Art Webb". What his real name is I don't know. But apparently he is called "Art Webb 1986" regularly. [3]. There's enough there to suggest he's notable.

  • Hey, what's going on, Zordrac? I'm not sure I agree with the criteria you have laid out for Art Webb 1986. If he isn't listed on IMDB for the bit he's supposed to play, he's a very background character. Also, being someone's sibling is not grounds for notability, so we should really only be looking at the CKY thing. JHMM13 (T | C) 00:38, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
    • Hmm. Well I am swinging on this one. All of the forums say that he *WAS* a notable character. I think that we just need to find out what his other name was. I am sure that he *WAS* listed on IMDB, just using another name. Art Webb is obviously a pseudonym. Zordrac (talk) Wishy Washy Darwikinian Eventualist 00:58, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
      • Righto, hopefully some other people can weigh in. See you around! JHMM13 (T | C) 05:08, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
• Relisting due to insufficient votes. - Mailer Diablo 09:55, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. 4500 hits on google minus the wikipedia ones. Even if its a pseudonym, its a notable one -- Astrokey44|talk 03:53, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Art Webb 1986

Delete AW1986 is a very minor cast member in the CKY / VLB dynasty - in fact, to call him a cast member is itself laughable. I seriously doubt that he deserves a separate entry, all that needs to be known about him (which is that he's Rake's brother) is on the CKY (videos) page. No diss at all to Art, I've seen - and love - everything these guys have put out, and edit the CKY video page. I can just confirm that whatever forums and google say, he is only very vaguely important to CKY and seriously not worth an entry. If all of Bam's friends who make occasional 2 second appearances in the CKY films and spin-offs were given pages there would be a hell of a lot of them. The whole of West Chester for a start... Other minor cast / crew members who have managed to get entries should also be looked at.

Also, as far as I know it isn't a psudonym, his surname is certainly Webb - "Rake Yohn", as his brother is known, is a psudonym, real name Ted Webb.

[edit] Combined Page

I have created a combined page for minor CKY Cast members. I intend to redirect this and other similar pages to there. Any objections?
