Article listed on Wikipedia:Votes for deletion Apr 14 to Apr 20 2004, consensus failed to be reached within the time limit. Discussion:

Surname articles belong in wiktionary. -- Graham :) | Talk 13:02, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Comment: Some do, but I doubt this one qualifies. Do you think it does? Why? Andrewa 23:59, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- No I don't think this one does, it was just a statement that in general if you want to start a surname article, start it there, not here. -- Graham :) | Talk 13:26, 15 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Actually it would be cool if it was a list of famous people called Bennett (there are quite a few). If there is some genealogical information on where the name is derived from - even better. Pteron 20:13, 16 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Expanding[edit]

I agree with the last comment there. There is a lot of room to expand this entry from a simple list. Like:

Origin [1]
Coat of arms [2]
Family tree [3]
Famous Bennetts - Tony Bennet

And the list of people with the name Bennett would just be an addition tagge on the end. There are plenty of other entries like this White (surname) and things like the above would certainly make the entry more generally interesting to the general reader.
