Well, on the one hand, evidently every single person who died in the
September 11, 2002 terrorist attack on New York and Washington deserves a
whole article to themselves.
But on the other hand, nobody seemed terribly upset when I deleted the
pages describing various students of "Gate House" and friends during the
vandalism kerfuffle involving them a month or two back.
Personally, I believe that a person should have some sort of historical
significance, no matter how slight, to warrant a Wikipedia article. But
then, I suffer from an overdeveloped sense of structure and philosophical
elegance, so perhaps that's just me. :)
