[edit] Matt Moline

Unremarkable personage on his own; he's the divorced husband of someone notable. Also, this reads like a press release copyvio. His mention on the Kathy Griffin page should be sufficient Tenebrae 21:45, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. --Holdek ^(talk) 21:57, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete marriage to a celebrity does not confer notability on you. Gwernol 22:12, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Moline is listed in IMDb, and he runs an IT consulting company. So he's notable in his own right. TruthbringerToronto 22:33, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Note: His IT consulting company is a freelance home office. Hundreds of thousands of people would be included in Wikipedia on that basis. -- Tenebrae 22:39, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Extra note: he is only listed on IMDb as the former husband of Kathy Griffin. Pascal.Tesson 23:33, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Since being listed on IMDB is the Hollywood equivalent of what being listed in the phonebook is to the rest of us, I fail to see what an IMDB listing says about notability per se. --Calton | Talk 00:18, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

• Redirect to Kathy Griffin, as all the info able to be sourced relates to her. Ziggurat 23:08, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Even a redirect is a bit of importance that this guy does not really deserve. See guidelines WP:BIO and the 100 years test. Pascal.Tesson 23:33, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect or Delete. He's married to Kathy Griffin -- that pretty much begins and ends the degree of his noteworthiness. Note to closer: this is not in any way, shape, or form intended as a keep vote. --Calton | Talk 00:18, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. There are thousands of small IT companies. His is one of them. His IMDB listing just says he appeared on his wife's show. No independent notability. Fan1967 00:51, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
