Does the Grinch hang out at AfD? Another theory I have is that some articles are so obscure they don't even get noticed there. Or they have references on them sufficient to sustain borderline notability. > I am I am a gingerbread man. So I run, I run as fast as I can. And you > And you can't catch me. I am I am the fastest.

I like interesting stubs as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_E._M._Hedges http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Street,_Jr. But some articles are unlikely to be anything more than stubs. Sometimes I've put such information in footnotes to an article, rather than create a new article.
