Barry Sears

Barry Sears created a diet, and that appears to be the limit of his notability. The diet is Zone diet, which is listed on Wiki. Apart from the Zone Diet the man appears to be non-notable. I suggest a redirect to Zone diet. SilkTork 11:39, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. --MaNeMeBasat 13:09, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as the creator of a very well-known diet. No redirect/merge is necessary, he's "notable" on his own. --badlydrawnjeff talk 12:39, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, clearly notable as an author per WP:BIO. To the nominator -- it may have been worth mentioning that you redirected the page and it was reverted. As to merging, I see pros and cons -- there is a lot more to the Zone diet than there is to Barry Sears so that article could absorb this one.. but an article on Sears is also appropriate.
