Exactly - this is a straw man.

'Notable'
is just
someones POV about what they think is
important.
I think you inclusionist folks severely
underestimate just how much
ridiculous stuff is verifiable and factual. I
could start typing in
entries for everyone who died in Atlanta each
die,
using the obituary
section of the local newspaper as a source, and
these are verifiable
and factual. There are plenty of "human
interest"
stories published
in the paper, like "family dog saves baby
from
drowning!". These are
verifiable and factual (verifiable in the
newspaper's archives), but
not notable.
How many instances can you cite of culling
obituaries for material, or
family dog stories? It seems pointless to generate
arguments for the
rejection of articles that nobody has written.
