[edit] Danny Shea
A borderline case, but I feel this individual does not meet the criteria in WP:BIO. Perhaps later, but not now. Crystallina 03:53, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Since when does contributing to a student journal made you notable? And as for the rest, there are millions of bloggers out there. Yandman 08:39, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. As the influence of the new media grows, so too does that of its stars. This young man seems to be among the more prominent/reputable bloggers, certainly writing for legitimate outlets, and he does seem to have a genuine following. I vote to keep it. ICW10003 01:32, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Comment: Users sole contribution to Wikipedia
- Keep. No need to delete this. The student is known in the blogsophere as an important contributor to an important website. I would say he is certainly notable on The Huffington Post - in August the site recorded 2.5 million unique visitors and 34 million page views. His writing has probably reached more readers than a large number of authors on Wikipedia.
- Comment: IP 140.180.17.70, this is it's only contribution to Wikipedia
- Delete. This isn't even borderline. The "sole contribution" posts above are sufficiently convincing. Michael Kinyon 10:59, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete nowhere near meeting WP:BIO. Angus McLellan (Talk) 14:56, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Writes for a blog. ergot 16:05, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
