Reality tv cruft - not notable! Plus does anyone have such a name, outside novels?! MacRusgail 00:24, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

• This is now the fourth time that this article has come to AFD. It was previously discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/James Branaman, and then again at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tyler Denk, and then yet again at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul J. Alessi. Merger into Amazing Race 10 contestants was suggested a week ago, is a pretty obvious step considering the duplication between this article and James Branaman and the ease with which the information in both would fit into the contestants article, and could have just been done instead of bringing this to AFD yet again.

- *Merge and Redirect to the appropriate Television show article. Same with the rest of the noms. FrozenPurpleCube 01:03, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

• Strong Keep, article sourced, this actor has appeared on multiple shows, so a merge is not appropriate. —siroχo 01:21, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
• Strong keep as a winner of The Amazing Race. "Cruft" is not a legitmate reason for deletion. Otto4711 04:34, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Another source here. Close to the line, but I say keep. ConDem^Talk 04:44, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Keep surely, being a winner of The Amazing Race and all of the sources above-60.230.134.36 05:08, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment-that's my comment above, heheh-K@ngie^meep! 05:10, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep as per posters above. An Amazing Race winner who has appeared on other programs is certainly notable enough for his own article on Wikipedia. Fipe 13:29, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep as notable. --evrik ^(talk) 14:47, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per notability outlines above. Additionally, I don't think making fun of the subject's name is proper deletion criteria nor is it very civil. IrishGuy ^talk 22:49, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. How many times does an article come up for deletion before it has immunity? Hey, I made a Reality TV pun! —xanderer 23:37, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete for lack of temporal or relative notability. - WeniWidiWiki 01:27, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Keep many wikipedians seem to be hostile to the idea of some reality show contestants / actors / fictional characters having their own articles, however, in this case, as this show is watched by millions across the globe, arguablly far more people will have heard of Tyler, and be more interested in him than of the many obscure politicans / scientists / philiosphers wikipedia features artciles on. Some people may not like that, but that's the way it is I'm afraid. --IvanKnight69 11:53, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per just above everyone else, possibly censure nominator if this type of non-constructive disruption continues. (jarbarf) 00:36, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Notable, meets WP:BIO. - Denny 06:01, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
