*'''Weak delete'''. I'm willing to be shown otherwise, speaking as a space buff, but I'm skeptical of the claim that Dunin played the primary role in calculating the first geostationary orbit. That's usually credited to ]. Additionally, few of the sources where I would expect to find information about him make any mention. I'm not saying he wasn't accomplished, but the jump from that to notability seems fishy. --] | ] 01:55, 21 September 2007 (UTC) | *'''Weak delete'''.

Stanley Dunin
- Stanley Dunin (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
Subject is a non notable person, and hence fails BIO. A google search reveals few topics. CO2 00:04, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete – Non-notable. —] 00:08, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Aerospace engineer published in his field. Head of the astrodynamics section of a NASA project and part of a team that launched the world's first geosynchronous communications satellite. Seems like the sort of person Misplaced Pages should have a biography about. Am I missing something? WjBscribe 00:17, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Science-related deletions. —WjBscribe 00:22, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Keep, as mentioned by WJC. ViperSnake151 00:30, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep per Will, and the reliable sources. Google searches is not everything, especially when you have the sources already in the article. Daniel 00:31, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep you must set a very high bar indeed if someone who has "...been head of the astrodynamics section of a NASA project, and in the 1960s successfully calculated the way to inject a satellite into a geosynchronous orbit." is not notable. KTo288 00:33, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep The article is relatively well-written and the man has done plenty of notable things. Anyway, the google hunt does show up a good amount of topics. Lauren 00:38, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- The article doesn't list any reliable sources. The first is trivial and only lists his name and what he does. The second doesn't make much sense. The 3 is trivial, the fourth has no relation to Stanley, the fifth is trivial, and the 6th isn't reliable, as it's a family tree constructed by members of an online community. CO2 00:39, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, unless reliable secondary sources can be provided that discuss the subject of the article. Tim Vickers 00:42, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Obviously notable. If you feel that its not well referenced enough {{sofixit}}. Deletion isn't cleanup. Shell 00:47, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- I looked, but could not find any. Perhaps you might have more luck. Tim Vickers 01:44, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep, more than likely notable, and I'm thinking that the sources are more than good enough. Animum, slow down there. :) *Cremepuff222* 01:30, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Snowball keep --Victor falk 01:43, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Weak delete. I'm willing to be shown otherwise, speaking as a space buff, but I'm skeptical of the claim that Dunin played the primary role in calculating the first geostationary orbit. That's usually credited to Herman Noordung. Additionally, few of the sources where I would expect to find information about him make any mention. I'm not saying he wasn't accomplished, but the jump from that to notability seems fishy. --Dhartung | Talk 01:55, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
