Dusty Mangum
This article is about a minor college football place kicker - not notable enough for an encyclopedia article. Rangerdude 06:20, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
- Keep The subject scored the winning field goal in the 2005 Rose Bowl, which has been acclaimed as one of the greatest games in the storied history of that contest. Johntex 06:30, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
- Delete This single event may be worth a brief mention on another article about the Rose Bowl or the game, but Mangum himself is not notable enough for a full article of his own. Rangerdude 06:37, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
- Comment As the article points out, he also holds the school record for most consecutive PATs (Points After Touchdown) for a storied football program such as UT, that is certainly notable. He holds numerous other records and awards as well. Johntex 06:47, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

- CommentI echo WP:POINT. Obvious retaliation for Johntex's having listed a Rangerdude article on VfD: Texas Media Watch. · Katefan0 14:42, May 27, 2005 (UTC)
