Talk:Aaron Gray

Untitled

This player lacks notability. Pre-season all-american? I don't think so. --meatclerk 10:45, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Note how is image is located in the site's banner. He is the team's star player. I would call that a notable player. Search online for his name. You will find many results. He is projected to go in the first round of this years NBA draft.

Your information not useful and seems intended to obfuscate the issue. AFD --meatclerk

Do you follow college basketball at all? Anyone who is familiar with the sport should know his name. The above information is relevant as it details his accomplishments. All-Big East, Most Improved Player, Big East Rebounding Champion, Averaged a double-double, etc. Those are notable accomplishments for a notable player. How are you marking this person as not notable?

No. I do not follow basketball. That is the point. Wikipedia is not about being familiar with a subject. That is the point of an encyclopedia.

The above information is obfuscation, of no use. Per Wikipedia:Notability (people) this article is called in question, as to notability.

Further removal of tag WP:AFD is considered vandalism and any person, or IP could be blocked from further access.

Boers & Bernstein Fans

Please stop inserting Dan & Terry's "white panther" bit into this article, it's a bit on a show and not what WP is for. I will protect this article if further nonsense is inserted so please, keep the bits to the show and off Wikipedia. Thanks.

--Wgfinley (talk) 16:34, 16 December 2008 (UTC) Nevermind, I've changed my mind. Please keep referring to Aaron Gray as the "white panther", since hes so slick and stealthy its ridiculous, and continue to post information on him as the "white panther" on Wikipedia. I love the Boers and Bernstein show! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.175.60.5 (talk) 17:34, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
