[edit] Marcus Rutilius Lupus

Non notable, only returns 105 hits on Google. The information is better suited for an Egypt related article. Jtrost (^T | C | _#) 22:51, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

• Delete I'd say merge to Kitos War except that it's all there already. Dlyons493 Talk 23:58, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - being the military governor/ruler of a land mass comparable to Texas is quite notable I think. You didn't really expect to find too many google hits for an ancient historical figure did you??Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 02:42, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Looks like a respectable though short {{Ancient-Rome-bio-stub}} to me. Tonywalton  | Talk 13:18, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
• Comment - I don't consider myself a deletionist. In fact I like to give all good stubs a chance to become great articles, however in the stub of this article it says "not much else is known about him", leading me to believe that this article will never be more than a stub. If that is the case then those couple sentences can easily go someplace else. Jtrost (^T | C | _#) 13:37, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Fair point. Changing my vote to Merge to here. Tonywalton  | Talk 15:43, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

• Seems not to be expandable. Redirect either to Kitos War (which has all the info) or to History_of_Greek_and_Roman_Egypt#Roman_rule_in_Egypt, where an editor should decide whether any of this stub's content is important enough to be merged in. Barno 20:03, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep ancient personages and sites may not register as many google hits as the latest members of some boyband, but that hardle means they are nn. We let in any state legislator or minor descendent of Queen Victoria; certainly Marcus Rutilius Lupus should be kept. And what is wrong with a short article anyway?
