[edit] Dzhambulat Khatokhov

Dzhambulat Khatokhov (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

For crying out loud, he is a fat seven year old. There's nothing watsoever notable about this person, no matter how many panicked news stories about childhood obesity feature him. -- Y not? 04:31, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

• Comment The Times story is based on the one in the Sun, not on independent reportage.DGG 05:43, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as a non-notable biography, WP:BIO refers. Is this person a world record holder in relation to their weight? If so then that might make them notable but as it stands this biography doesn't rise to notability. (aeropagitica) 09:00, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
• Delete a large child does not lead to large notability. Lankiveil 10:59, 15 April 2007 (UTC).

• Very weak delete - there was an hour-long documentary on him on Britain's gift to world culture, Channel 4 (I saw it) so I guess technically he does satisfy WP:BIO, but I think this is a reasonable occasion to WP:IAR and delete it anyway; when all's said and done, he's just a fat kid. - iridescenti (talk to me!) 16:46, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
• Unsure I created this article because I thought it would be notable, on reflection I'm still not sure. I'm still new at the wiki, so still in the learning curve. DavidMcKenzie 09:12, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
• Don't delete A kid who's apparently famous in Russia, has been on tv lots, has been the subject of an hour-long documentary on Channel 4, I think deserves his own Wikipedia page!! I saw the repeat programme again tonight, and I bet very many of the 1-3 million that viewed the programme will want to know how the kid is doing now. What better way than by a constantly updated Wikipedia entry? To not include this guy is to lessen the appeal and relevance of Wikipedia. He may not be the fattest or heaviest kid in the world for his age, but it is he that has gained notoriety. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.178.244.134 (talk) 01:25, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
