Notability[edit]
I agree...this is most definitely not worthy of being added to an encyclopedia. The man never did anything except scare JK Rowling enough to make her angry chemist — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.185.164.167 (talk) 15:04, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
This is a footnote in a Harry Potter wiki, it is not worthy of mention in an encyclopedia. 184.228.169.174 (talk) 03:22, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
- His notability in WP terms is demonstrated by multiple independent sources. Ghmyrtle (talk) 08:23, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
No offence, but I fail to see how he is notable enough to have an entry in an encyclopedia. The "sources" are more like the usual media gossip built around a famous and successful franchise. In brief, I think this article should be nominated for deletion. 65.255.37.169 (talk) 22:50, 25 August 2012 (UTC) I'm proposing this article for deletion. 5.116.30.38 (talk) 23:01, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
- Agreed - Mr Nettleship certainly doesn't warrant his own page. I've consequently nominated this for deletion. Gymnophoria (talk) 16:01, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
I agree too!! Poor man! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.37.241.29 (talk) 08:25, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
Contested deletion[edit]
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it is widely asserted that he was a major inspiration for a major character (Severus Snape) in a major series of books (Harry Potter) by a major author (J. K. Rowling). This is a credible claim of significance. Ghmyrtle (talk) 16:41, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
