Downgrading CSD to AFD. Doesn't seem notable enough to merit an article, so I figure I'll list it here for consensus since it was so politely contested. delete UtherSRG (talk) 07:47, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- comment I must ask what you mean by "doesn't seem notable enough." The burden of proof falls upon you as nominator to show why this does not meet guidelines. This subject meets the General Notability Guideline by virtue of having received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. riffic (talk) 07:51, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Second relist rationale. Aside from the opening "Otto Divosta was", it's not clear whether or not this person is alive so relisting just to be on the safe side. Furthermore, there are several mentions of otherwise non-notable living people in this article. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:09, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep - the references provide some evidence of notability; unfortunately I haven't checked the offline ones, but the first reference is good, and assuming the rest are what they sound like I'm willing to give this article the benefit of the doubt. It's a borderline case - I wouldn't particularly object to deletion, but I think this article probably passes our notability guidelines. Robofish (talk) 16:54, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
