Delete possibly the most unremarkable bio-stub ever. Can it be this banal and still be vanity? Apparently so. Postdlf 08:23, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)

• Delete. Someone comes along, types there name into Wikipedia, finds no article, so creates it - ignoring the big Do not write articles about yourself statement. Average Earthman 10:45, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• Doug, you do have the makings of a novelist: this page, brief as it is, exudes an air of wistfulness and nostalgia. As a 50+year-old, I can tell you there's stuff ahead of you, though. (Delete.) — Bill 12:27, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• Keeping that page for other people to gain an insight on what a boring life he leads would be more of a punishment for creating it than deleting it ... never-the-less, delete. Shane King 13:19, Oct 22, 2004 (UTC)
• Delete: "The exciting world of chartered accountancy awaits you!" This reminds me a lot of that accountant in Monty Python who thinks he wants to be a lion tamer. Seems like a decent fellow, but he hasn't yet gotten to the level of encyclopedic. He also apparently has a miniscule for his surname. Geogre 14:40, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• Keep: Notable for being "the most unremarkable bio-stub ever", or just delete it. Wolfman 01:52, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• D Puh-lease ... Chris 03:08, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• Delete, clearly, and there's no reason why pages like this should have to stick around for a week or more. -R. fiend 01:55, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• Delete vanity. If he wants his own entry, he should set up a user page. Inky 01:35, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)
