[edit] Jacob Sager Weinstein

369 hits on google. [1] What is the acceptable threshold for includability in this instance? GRider\^talk 17:37, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Keep working on that screenplay, Jake. Wile E. Heresiarch 05:39, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, under the bar of notability for me, possible vanity. Megan1967 06:06, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Abstain. As the subject of this article, it would be inappropriate for me to vote on this VFD, but I'd encourage people to take a look at the previous VFD. Note that, following the previous VFD discussion, my original self-created page was deleted (as I had proposed.) The page in its current form was created by a Wikipedia user I have never met using publically available information. For what it's worth, my own assessment is that I do meet two of criteria for inclusion but needless to say I have an obvious bias.--Jacobw 13:58, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Comment. How many episodes of Dennis Miller Live did he write? Was he a significant contributor? The show itself is notable, with an eight-year run and several Emmys (I haven't watched it, though). Is he a Joss Whedon, or anything close? Not sure if aspiring to write a screenplay is encyclopedic—my understanding is that we shy away from such forward-looking statements. --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 15:45, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • The subject of the article clarified his involvement in the show; I've added that information to the article. (Details are on my talk page, he was a staff writer for three or so years). --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 18:24, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • If aspiring to write a screenplay is encyclopedic then we'd have to list half the West Los Angeles phonebook in here.
• Delete. Sorry guy, but until that screenplay gets produced, it's not a difficult decision here. --Calton 15:50, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Associated with two famous productions. Johntex 21:42, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete lots of people are associated with a famous production, because famous productions are big. But he didn't do any serious writing or creativity yet. Radiant! 08:53, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, unless it can be established that he was a major contributor to both projects. I think Radiant has it right. Writers, though perhaps the most important element of such things, are still behind the scenes figures who don't have the visibility, and hence fame and notability, as those who appear in front of the cameras. -R. fiend 09:39, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, hasn't done anything notable yet. JamesBurns 05:57, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
