Talk:Kermit Roosevelt III

message: Why is this guy worthy of a wikipedia article? What is his notability? What has he accomplished? Just curious.Nunamiut (talk) 22:22, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: He's, at the very least, an author with published works. Based on that alone, an author with more than one book gets an article. Plus he's a Roosevelt.--RossF18 (talk) 23:32, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Family relationships don't grant notability. However, his career and books appear sufficient. Rklawton (talk) 15:58, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  I was wondering about this too.  The book reviews are clearly good sources and indicate public interest, but do they make the book more notable than him?  On the other hand, I feel that GNG is met because refs 1 and 2 are about him specifically, and not just the books.  While perhaps people are more interested in interviewing him because he's a Roosevelt, that's probably not for WP to decide.  I think the fact that the book has reviews and there are published interviews with him makes it not just WP:BIO1E.  If I'm understanding everything correctly.

message: Some of the reference links are dead or go to paywalls. A better link for a review of The Myth of Judicial Activism would be www.democracyjournal.org/pdf/3/DAJOI3_Chemerinksy.pdf‎ (review by Erwin Chemerinsky). For profiles (since this article was proposed for deletion on the grounds of a lack of profiles), one might look at http://observer.com/2005/11/the-little-supremes/ (describing Roosevelt as one of a group frequently mentioned as possible Supreme Court appointments) or http://articles.latimes.com/2005/jun/06/entertainment/et-roosevelt6 (LA Times profile in the context of publication of In the Shadow of the Law) or http://observer.com/2005/06/kermit-the-rough-writer/ (New York Observer profile in the context of publication of In the Shadow of the Law)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.98.113.65 (talk) 13:31, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you misunderstood the reason this article was put up for deletion. Profiles are oftentimes not third-party sources, and multiple reliable third-party sources with significant independent coverage are needed to establish notability. The first and second links you provided only mention him briefly, with the first containing one quote from him (self-input is not third-party), and the third link is essentially a primary source since much of it relies on his quotes. He still fails WP:GNG, and is likely a case of WP:BIO1E. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 02:46, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
