[edit] Keith Beukelaer

I wasn't watching Idol back then, but it sounds like this guy was a William Hung with no follow-up fame. I don't think making an ass of yourself in one Idol episode inherently qualifies you for an article, even if you get interviewed about it afterwards. See Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Mary Roach for precedent. I'm voting delete rather than redirect; he currently is mentioned in the main American Idol article, but I don't think he even merits a mention there, and it's certainly a bad editorial decision to give him equal treatment to Hung.

• Delete I can barely remember the guy, mention in the appropriate season AI article is probably enough. -- MisterHand 23:06, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - Not notable, does not meet WP:BIO. Also, per Postdlf on Mary Roach precedent. —ERcheck @ 00:01, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, infamously bad. Wiwaxia 11:11, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
• Merge or Redirect to the relevant season of American Idol. This should not be considered a keep vote. Stifle 09:45, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - Get rid of it. Keith Beukelaer probably put this enyry in himself. Delete!
