[edit] Howard McFarland Fish
No reason; was added to AfD by Majorclanger but this subpage was not created and the article itself was not tagged. 1,640 Google hits, including a CNN article [1]. Mithent 02:07, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Hmmm... didn't think I actually submitted to AfD, but obviously I did. My main issue with this is that it's not an encyclopedic article at all, just a copy and paste or slight rewrite of a news article - it has next to no information about this guy apart from the single event.

- Delete. Non-notable in wiki sense; might become so if the trial brings out some startling new information. Delete; re-create if becomes notable. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Springnuts (talk • contribs) 13:47, 30 March 2007 (UTC).
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached

- Weak keep, needs rewrite and Wiki-fixing. Realkyhick 17:50, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per Springnuts. This is a minor news item that would be more appropriate for wikinews. The links are very likely to go dead soon - the one in the article already has. Re-create if something notable develops during the trial.--Kubigula (talk) 20:45, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
