This is not a majority vote. If someone brought this page to your attention, or you brought this page to others' attention, please make a note of this fact here. While widespread participation is encouraged, the primary purpose of this page is to gauge consensus of a representative sample of Wikipedians; therefore, it's important to know whether someone is actively soliciting others from a non-neutral location to discuss. Such contributors are not prohibited from commenting, but it's important for the closing administrator or bureaucrat to know how representative the participants are of Wikipedians generally.

KEEP: Cap'n Walker seems to have a personal vendetta against anyone associated with KLLI. Wikipedia is about information. There are a lot of people/things listed on Wikipedia that wouldn't fall under the "notable" guidelines. When you delete all of those, then you can justify this - until then, it's a vendetta. Are you really Kraddick in disguise? The fact of the matter is - if it's information for the public - and Wiki isn't getting complaints from the subject (and yes, Dan KNOWS about his Wiki entry) - then get off your high horse and go do something useful. If you delete Russ and Dan et al, I expect all these to be deleted as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Radio_people_stubs - Tara — Prettypetal 07 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

KEEP-Dan O'Malley is an important part of the Russ Martin Listeners Foundation for Fallen Police and Firefighters. He is also a co-host of a popular weekend radio show and a co-producer of the higest rated radio show in DFW, a top five market in the nation. Dan O'Malley deserves to be on here as he is a public figure and active in the community through his association with the charity. Captain Walker seems to have some type of problem with people from KLLI and has attacked other shows and personalities from the same station. KEEP Dan O'Malley on here!!!!....David. — 71.158.162.162 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


KEEP- Dan O'Malley is a public figure on 105.3 Klli Radio station. He is involved with the Russ Martin show and with the Hero's Parade. He is well known to people in the Dallas/Ft Worth metroplex and even more. There are less known people than him still on wikipedia, aim for them rather than Dan. He DESERVES to be on here. Next time use your time better than aiming for people who deserve to be on here —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rikurik (talk • contribs) 04:42, 23 September 2007 (UTC) — User:Rikurik (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

DELETE - Dan is not nearly as notable as Russ is. Just because he is somewhat famous from a radio show does not mean he is notable enough for a Wikipedia article. Do not get me wrong, I enjoy listening to him on the show and I think he makes it better than without him, but he just is not notable enough for a Wikipedia article yet. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Donwilson (talk • contribs) 07:01, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
