Brian Doyle

He is only notable for an accusation of a crime. This is a wikinews item, not an encyclopedia item. The article didn't exist until his arrest. Move to Wikinews. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tbeatty (talkcontribs)

  • Keep, and all votes containing "NN" should be ignored, notability is nebulous and not a criteria for keeping or deleting. Instead we are to focus on what is encyclopedic, which this guy is, was and shall be. Sam Spade 17:42, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • One of my reasons was "unencyclopedic". It isn't clear to me how this person is encyclopedic so this is why I listed it. He is definitely news, but since he wasn't "encyclopedic" before the arrest, what makes it so now? --Tbeatty 18:01, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
