Contested prod. Innkeeper whose notability is not established. In contesting the prod, the creator did assert notability - that of the town this person works in. Delete. Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 04:31, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Sources as below. They're not much but they're enough to satisfy WP:N and notability in a local context is still notability:

- Delete an obituary in the local paper is not the significant coverage in independent reliable sources required for notability. Nuttah (talk) 14:40, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Is that a personal opinion, or do you have a reference to policy to support that assertion? - DustFormsWords (talk) 00:59, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Does not reach my standards of notability (for all that's worth). Generally agree that a single obit in local paper is not significant. However, if within that obit something really notable is listed (e.g., was a crew member on the Enola Gay) I might think differently. In this individual's case, the most notable thing in the obituary to me was that "He remembered Albert Einstein watching his platoon practicing military drills". I also went ahead and deleted what I considered a spam link to his real-estate agency(?) which was suffixed to the wikipedia article (can I do that if I'm weighing in on an AfD here?). -Quartermaster (talk) 15:30, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
