Allie E. Brooks, Jr.[edit]

This was proposed for speedy deletion but does not meet the criteria. Well written, but this person may not be sufficiently notable for encyclopedic purposes. -- Curps 18:11, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete I disagree that it's particularly well written, it seems full of POV and weasel words "some [people] say..." and "a few [people] feel" etc. It's definitely not a speedy candidate, nor is it a hoax, since Mr. Brooks' retirement did get a few words in the local press. I still don't think that being a long-runing and well-admired high school principal is quite enough to warrant an encyclopedia article though. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:31, Feb 9, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, school tribute. Wyss 18:49, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Sorry, John McAllen has worked at the local snack bar for 32 years too, yet he doesn't deserve an article. Neither does Mr. Brooks. Phils 22:52, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Gushing, weasel-worded bio and insufficiently notable subject. That having been said, it's nice to think that a student would write something this heartfelt as opposed to the horrid vandalism that sometimes comes in regarding teachers and faculty. - Lucky 6.9 00:20, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete, this is what the deletion policy refers to as a Vanity page--Whysperseed 08:17, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
