Antwain Easterling[edit]

He was notable at the time of his arrest but since then hasn't been heard of. Iamawesome800 22:16, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Notability does not expire. -- Eastmain (talk) 02:25, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not notable. Being arrested for a sex crime does not make a person notable. LK (talk) 08:30, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not just because you are awesome, but because notability is insufficient. ChildofMidnight (talk) 09:56, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. 1) His sporting achievements don't meet WP:ATHLETE 2) The majority of the article is about his arrest which leads to WP:UNDUE weight. 3) People being arrested for a sex crime is unfortunately too common; it doesn't make him notable unless it has far reaching consequences like changes in the law or if the crime was exceptionally cruel (Marc Dutroux, Yorkshire Ripper) and the person involved convincted. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:25, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
delete WP:NOTNEWS. I'd be willing to maybe extend that slightly if either his athletics or his arrest were enough such that he'd be notable but for NOTNEWS but there's close to zero coverage of both. JoshuaZ (talk) 01:13, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
