Notability?

I'm struggling to see how he qualifies in his own right for an article. If nothing he ever did was worthy of note up till now, why does his death suddenly make him notable? -- JackofOz (talk) 18:59, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Me too, and this confirms it. I'm going to nominate for deletion and see where that goes. Lugnuts (talk) 12:03, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So far it is a stub. It's up to those who wish to preserve this article to decide whether this grandson of one of the greatest of monsters of history deserves his own article or should have his mention transformed into a footnote of his mother or his grandfather.

Did he ever write about his connection to his grandfather? There is always the possibility of posthumous disclosures. Are there any extant film clips of him with his horrible grandfather? He was six when his grandfather died, so it is hard to see what influence his grandfather had upon him. Cardiologist? Cardiologists can be very notable as such. How good was he?

Put up or shut up. --Paul from Michigan (talk) 11:58, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
