Disambiguation note

There's only one Chris Darwin at the moment, but you may note there is also Chris Darwin (actor) who has appeared in such highbrow productions as Coronation Street, Brookside, Heartbeat, etc [1]. There is also Chris Darwin (psychologist)/ aka Christopher J. Darwin, emeritus professor at Sussex University [2]. Flying Fische (talk) 12:59, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notable?

Being related to someone notable does not in itself confer notability Greenmaven (talk) 11:59, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

These issues were thrashed out pretty extensively at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chris Darwin just a few days ago. Sergeant Cribb (talk) 16:51, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Charles Darwin has hundreds of descendants - why is Chris Darwin singled out with his own page? Being a self-promoter based on a family connection isn't something that should be encouraged. Most westerners would have a famous ancestor four generations back!

No consensus?

Most in the discussion about deletion were in favor of deletion Greenmaven (talk) 12:04, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you feel that the AFD was closed incorrectly, then you could take it to Wikipedia:Deletion review. However, please remember that that board is for cases where you think the closer interpreted the debate incorrectly, not just where you wanted a different conclusion. Please also note that you should first discuss it with the closer, in this case User:Timotheus Canens. Sergeant Cribb (talk) 16:49, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
