Redirect to Pat's SteaksKeep per Capitalistroadster's expansion. -- zzuuzz (talk) 18:46, 24 July 2006 (UTC)- Keep. His death has been widely reported over the past few days and there is enough material available to write a proper biography. There are 173 Google News stories about him see [1].
The Washington Post [2], Los Angeles Times, [3] and the New York Times [4] have all reported his death so there is enough material for a standalone article. Redirect as a second best option. Capitalistroadster 21:01, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

- I have expanded the article with sources. Capitalistroadster 10:25, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

- note on obituaries cited--every single one of them seems to be a rewrite of the original Philadelphia Daily news obit. So it's the the same original source with no new research. I'm changing my original request to delete to merge with Pat's Steaks article.Konczewski 11:12, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
- Even if that's so, the wide range of publication indicates that he was important far beyond Philly. --badlydrawnjeff talk 11:13, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
