[edit] Niall Bruton
little recalled irish athlete; who with passage of time lacks notability
- I am completing this nomination on behalf of 213.202.176.96 (talk · contribs) Natalie (talk) 01:04, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. He competed at the IAAF World Championships In Athletics and the IAAF World Indoor Championships. That proves notability. --Eastmain (talk) 04:43, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Athletes-related deletion discussions. —Eastmain (talk) 04:43, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- Keep Because he has received attention from some very well established newspapers, I believe notability has been established. See http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=%22Niall+Bruton%22&btnG=Search+Archives&ie=UTF-8 (Mind meal (talk) 04:57, 4 February 2008 (UTC))
- Speedy Keep. Clearly notable. Pointless AFD nomination.--Michig (talk) 12:32, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- Keep International class athlete and notability doesn't evaporate over time. Nick mallory (talk) 12:54, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy keep indeed. I realize that Natalie Erin was acting in good faith, but we don't need to complete every misguided deletion nomination made by anonymous editors. RFerreira (talk) 18:03, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- Better to just let this run its course so their opinion is obviously refuted then have to continue to deal with this particular issue. The anonymous user is on a bit of a campaign in regards to Irish athletes, and this seems to be the easiest way to demonstrate to him or her that the opinion is not shared.

- Speedy keep. No valid deletion reason given by nominator. Notability is not temporary. Phil Bridger (talk) 18:40, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
