Gavin Foley[edit]

I suggest merging with Zach Foley, however as this was listed as a speedy deletion I'm putting this to vote on VfD. - Ta bu shi da yu 00:29, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete: I'd have made it speedy, only because it has all the hallmarks of a joke. The article tells us highly improbable things and then says that his only impact on society was the creation of a group that got disbanded. Yet we're assured that he's a legend. Again, it looks very much like a joke. I'm assuming that you've checked it and it's not. I don't know about Zach Foley, but the article on Gavin is a goner. Geogre 01:48, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
    • It's not a joke page, and has no other criteria for it being a speedy deletion. I don't mind it being deleted, this just needs to go through VfD. - Ta bu shi da yu 04:44, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • D "brother of ... an obscure music star" Notability by association again. Chris 02:23, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
    • Incidentally, I have references identifying a "Zach Foley" in EMF, though I doubt it's but it's not the same person - the "real" one was born in 1970 and is still alive and died in 2002. Google for "Zach Foley" -EMF returns exactly 24 hits, of which not a single one refers ot this guy's brother. Chris 02:25, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
PS - the article author removed the VfD tag, which I have duly replaced.
  • Delete. The brother of an obscure musical star definitely doesn't deserve an article. I don't think an obscure musical star deserves an article either. NeoJustin 4:03 Oct 24, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Non-notable brother of "an obscure musical star". Yeah. Nadavspi 00:48, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
