- Keep. I agree, it's not a great article right now, but surely this is a real profession? Maybe they call them graveyard technicians now or something, I don't know, but surely there's enough knowledge about the profession of gravedigging to fill an article? I think this article needs work, not removal. (Obviously, if there's already an article about this under another name, then a redirect would be the way to go -- I couldn't find one, though.) -- Captain Disdain 04:05, 15 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep some of the nominations baffle me. This article is clearly a stub, but any reputable encyclopedia in the world has an article for "gravedigger". No question that the article needs expansion/improvement. Check and see if Britannica has an article before nominating.--Nicodemus75 04:20, 15 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. I have expanded the article to include notable people who have worked as gravediggers and gravediggers in arts and literature. The latter includes the gravedigger scene from Hamlet - one of the most notable scenes in theatre. There are also notable people who have worked as gravediggers including two blues musicians who have Allmusic.com articles and have recorded several albums and performed national tours. Sid Smith, the author has won a Whitbread Prize in literature while the Pappenheimer Family were unfortunates wrongly accused of murdering seven pregnant women and improbable acts of witchcraft, tortured and burned alive during a witchcraft scare in 1600.
