[edit] Norval Marley

Norval Marley (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Contested prod. There is no indication in this article of any importance whatsoever beyond having a famous son, and notability is not inherited. Wikipedia is not a genealogical repository. Fails WP:BIO. Dhartung | Talk 03:52, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

I say KEEP not delete

Bob's ethnicity is tied to the meaning in his music. So him coming from an Anglo Jamaican who abandoned him is worth knowing(for those who want delve into his music's meanings). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.108.81.199 (talk) 18:19, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

• Comment Note that removing the AFD template from the article, as you did here, does not halt the discussion or prevent the article from being deleted. --Dhartung | Talk 19:26, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Yes, Marley's ancestry is interesting and can be discussed in his own article.--Bedivere 22:04, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
• Merge with Bob Marley as the content is useful, but the subject is plainly not notable for his own article per the requriements of WP:BIO. Bearian 21:46, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

• Merge and redirect to Bob Marley. The only aparent aspect of notability is that fact that he is father of someone who is notable, and that does not qualify for article of his own.207.69.137.27 17:01, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
