[edit] Jarvis Waring

• Delete - Not notable on his own. All mentions of him are only in Norman Rockwell articles. AKeen 00:45, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Keep – I believe being the father of Norman Rockwell establishes notoriety in and of itself. However, I do agree the article does have to be re-written.. Shoessss 00:57, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Not notable. He did nothing famous except having a famous son. Article is unsourced as well. If kept would need a total re-write. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 00:59, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete: The article does not establish the notability claim. ~ Magnus animum ∵ ∫ φ γ 01:17, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete: I've tried rewriting the assault upon spelling, grammar and style that was the original article, but there is little to it that is worth noting. He was born; he became a businessman (how rare!), he gave birth to someone more famous, and then he died. There's no backbone to the article nor any reason why he deserves more than merely references in the Normal Rockwell article. If someone can pull something interesting out of the hat that suggests that he did something that was stand-alone notable, I might change my mind. --It's-is-not-a-genitive 01:43, 9 May 2007 (UTC)\
  • Comment If he gave birth, that would likely make him very notable! --Charlene 02:32, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment: Indeed! I meant raised. Hereabove see the perils of writing at nearly 3 am having had a day and a half of no sleep! --It's-is-not-a-genitive 11:39, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. No assertion that he is notable other than being the father of Norman Rockwell. (By the way, if his father's notable, why isn't his mother? Why aren't the parents of every artist who ever lived?) --Charlene 02:29, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Lack notability. Not enough material for an article. Vassyana 04:18, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Nothing to establish his own notability. JodyB _talk 11:26, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete No personal notability. NawlinWiki 15:24, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Wikipedia is not a genealogy site. Qworty 20:06, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Not notable in his own right, except for his son. Realkyhick 20:11, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, not notable. Not even the given connection provides enough notabilty. --Phoenix 22:41, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Not notable, unrefrenced and no material with which to write about him. Felix 12:27, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
