- Speedy Keep Bad-faith nom from an editor who has shown ignorance for proper notability standards (see George Manners-Sutton and George Manners). EVula 20:56, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Wikipedia is not only for things popular with American college students. I don't claim bad faith, but I wonder if the nominator realizes there's a big world out there past UCF or even the entire United States. Deleting articles on the Mannerses is analogous to deleting articles on people like John Hancock and Button Gwinnett (signers of the Declaration of Independence). --Charlene.fic 22:06, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep I strongly suggest that the nominator review WP:BIO more closely before nominating any more former members of British parliament for deletion. This is getting repetative, and frankly, I'm starting to feel that it's reflecting a bit poorly on the biases of American Wikipedians. We have an article on every single signer of the American Declaration of Independence and I'm sure most US citizens couldn't name four.[1] Dina 01:04, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
