notability?

To editor Everymorning: I can only assume you think the bar for GNG is that low. Generally, Wikipedia doesn't engage in this sort of navel gazing until after the subject has died. Chris Troutman (talk) 13:58, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty much.But, given how affectionate our ecosystem is for preserving anything WP related in mainspace, an AfD is probably and near-certainly meaningless....... ~ Winged Blades^Godric 14:04, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fond as we are of Brad, few of us want to gaze at his navel. --GRuban (talk) 14:24, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, I take no position on whether I am notable or not. Newyorkbrad (talk) 16:53, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request from the article subject

In the infobox, please consider deleting "Wikipedian" from the "Occupation" line. I value my participation here, and it might be worth mentioning under another heading, but editing Wikipedia is an avocation rather than an occupation. Regards, Newyorkbrad (talk) 20:14, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
