[edit] Rolf Schumacher

  • Delete Not a prominent figure. The article says nothing of note. The fact that he is father of two F1 drivers is clear as soon as you know that there are brothers in F1. Damiancorrigan 21:50, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Template:Scomment - I'm not really sure what I think about this, but the fact is that we have an article on Earl Woods, whose only real claim to fame is that he's the father of a notable athlete. Aplomado talk 22:06, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
    • The piece on Earl Wood is at least a proper article, and he has been interviewed. The Wood piece is poor and nearly worthy of deletion, but it has more substance than the piece on Schumacher Snr. Damiancorrigan 22:11, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
      • OK, I'm just not sure what the policy is regarding parents of very notable people. Aplomado talk 22:13, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete totaly nn, Tiger Wood's dad has at least been on tv. --Eivindt@c 23:02, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nomination. While Earl Woods was known for being Tiger Woods' father, he was very well known for being Tiger Woods' father; Sports Illustrated devoted three full pages in the current week's issue to reminiscences of Earl due to his death last week. This article doesn't support the claim that Rolf Schumacher is very well known for being his sons' father. --Metropolitan90 23:23, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
I have been an F1 fan for 13 years and wouldn't recognise him if he stood in front of me in a t-shirt saying "I'm the old German bloke you don't think is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia." Damiancorrigan 23:49, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Comment - this page has gone quiet. It's 3-0 to delete, do we just wait for a moderator to come along and delete it now? Damiancorrigan 11:16, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom. I can wait a week for a delete. :) — RJH 15:26, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
