Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it is suitably referenced and about a notable subject. Britten was the first to complete the course on a popular series that took seven seasons to crown its first winner. If Kacy Catanzaro (who appeared as a DYK on the main page) and David Campbell are notable enough for articles, how is Britten, who gained extensive media coverage after his run, not? --Bcschneider53 (talk) 17:29, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough :) Qaei ☎ 17:37, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Qaei: Thank you for listening to my reasoning. We need more of that around here! FYI I'm planning to write one for Isaac Caldiero (the only other competitor to complete the course in the show's history) at some point, so if you see that name in the new page patrol... :) --Bcschneider53 (talk) 17:42, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Bcschneider53: I'll keep my eye out for it :D Qaei ☎ 17:52, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
