Kip Kinkel

Hello Joshua Z, this is Marksdaman. The reason I redirected Kip Kinkel to Thurston High School shooting was because the article on the shooting gives information on the shooting and the background of Kip Kinkel, I just didn't think you'd need two pages about the shooting. Thats why I think we should leave the Kip Kinkel article redirect to the Thurston High School shooting. Thank you, and please respond Marksdaman My talk 19:36, 17 March 2009

David Pearce Deletion Review

Hi Joshua Z, I need your advice in relation to a previous close of a deletion review Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/David_Pearce_(philosopher) you completed back in 2006. I was referred to the Wikipedia biography of David Pearce (philosopher) as I was told "he was famous as he is on Wikipedia". It seems that looking at his Talk page, his significance is a contentious issue, and seems to be supported only by a number of editors who provide somewhat broken web citations to his numerous autobiographical websites, often hosted by his own company. Would you consider there to be grounds for a re-review of its deletion status? flyingkiwiguy (talk) 18:07, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
