[edit] Paul Booth (SDS activist)

Paul Booth (SDS activist) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Stub article, no secondary sources, minor claim to notability. Can be covered with a single sentence in the SDS article. Guy (Help!) 16:32, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Strong delete He's just some guy, you know. Totally non notable guy. Hipocrite - «Talk» 17:27, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Has no notability other than being in on the founding of SDS, and doesn't seem to have been particularly notable in SDS history. His involvement with the organization ended years before it entered the public eye. RGTraynor 20:22, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notability does not expire. If he was notable back then, he is notable today. --Eastmain 00:20, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
  • And doesn't seem to have been notable then. RGTraynor 03:57, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep SDS was an extremely notable U.S. organization in the 1960's so a vice president and founder of it is notable By this I mean that I expect there are multiple reliable and independent sources to be found given a little time and digging in possible noninternet sources. Funny though, I don't remember the name. Edison 06:37, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete One ref to him in a published source that is pretty marginal (the other is about his wife) does not qualify as multiple published sources notability. NBeale 22:52, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
