[edit] Brian Howe (murder victim)

Although his murder was undoubtedly extremely tragic, when you strip out all the stubs tags, the cleanup tag and headings all you are left with is the year he was born, the date he was murdered and the date he was burried. If this info is worth having put it in the Mary Bell article (his murderer). He was only 2 years old and so not notable for anything else. Thryduulf 12:15, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

• Merge any data not already in the Mary Bell article. The case is significant in UK law, but sadly Brian Howe did not have the opportunity to become notable in his own right. Average Earthman 13:16, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Merge, as per Average Earthman. Katefan0 18:04, Feb 4, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge. —Mar·ka·ci:2005-02-4 20:39 Z
• Redirect to Mary Bell. There's more information about him on that article. --Idont Havaname 23:42, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, apart from his murder he wasn't notable himself. Wikipedia is not a crime database. Megan1967 01:45, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
