Proposed deletion edit

Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

User talk:Cholmes75 placed a template on the article that would have AUTOMATICALLY deleted the article in 5 days WITH NO DISCUSSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That quite frankly is the sleaziest afd process I have yet to see on Wikipedia. The relationship between Jackie O. and her father is one of the most written about subjects in history. There are umpteen books on the subject. Yea, this article is really a stub and needs expansion. But it should be improved and not nuked. Per the instructions on the template if one person objects and removes the template, the automatic deletion cannot occur. I wondered in here because of the current Broadway Play and its associated movie plans and was shocked to see the template. Americasroof 17:02, 16 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

It is now believed that his nickname, "Black Jack", referring to his omnipresent dark tan, was caused by Hemochromatosis. This is suported in the book "Black Jack Bouvier" which ends where he has had surgery, and has been found to have died of liver disease. As more info comes to hand, this could be a significant article. Venturian 15:20, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

The relationship between Jackie O. and her father is one of the most written about subjects in history

It may seem captious, but I must dispute that: I am not ill-read, but although barely knowledgeable about Mrs. Onassis, I was even more ignorant of her father. Even Mr. Kennedy is rarely now mentioned in Britain, more famous for being murdered than anything else, a rather fugitive vague figure.

Mrs. Onassis, nor either of her two husbands, were as written about as say, Napoleon, or even Mussolini.

Separately: why is the subject categorized as a Franco-American when he was simply descended from an 18th century Frenchman ?
