Alexander Seinfeld[edit]

DeleteThis is a vanity page, that seems to be focused on selling an obscure book by the individual. While it is noteworthy that he is a distant relative of Jerry Seinfeld, there are many relatives of Seinfeld who don't have wikipedia pages despite accomplishments equally as noteworthy if not more so. --Rexrexilius 06:07, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete It's worth noting that the relationship to Jerry is third cousin, meaning (if used correctly) they have the same great-great-grandparents. This is a very distant relation. I knew a kid in grade school who was second cousin (or something like that) to Ulysses S. Grant. If we look hard enough, we're all related to someone notable.

  • Delete, in effect, we're all cousins. I mean, I've got some famous distant cousins, along with a few famous direct ancestors. It's interesting, but not that unusual or notable in itself. This article is self-promotion, the topic isn't yet encyclopedic. Wyss 20:25, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, vanity. Edeans 22:03, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete-unless: A former rabbi, author and lecturer, now non-profit director, might be encyclopedic. The article, as written now, not explain how. Samaritan 22:24, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, not notable, possible vanity. Megan1967 02:21, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Vanity. I'm removing the reference the author of this article inserted into Jerry Seinfeld. JoaoRicardo 05:28, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete I agree, this is vanity. MicahMN | Talk 20:27, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)
