Ted Seabrooke[edit]

This person is not notable enough to justify his having his own article. If we were to create articles for every high school coach in America, Wikipedia would be swamped. And the fact that he mentored John Irving does not make him notable in and of itself. Juansidious (talk) 02:37, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete unless it can be shown that his tenure at Philips Exeter was a notable one, e.g. championships or winning seasons, with independent coverage. Just being the coach of a guy who later becomes famous for writing about wrestling isn't enough, even if you work for a fairly prestigious school.--Dhartung | Talk 08:30, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Might deserve an expanded mention on John Irving's page, but not a page of his own. Alberon (talk) 10:33, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
