Wikiquote:Votes for deletion/Christian Bale

Christian Bale
I originally marked this as a PROD as unsourced. It is now sourced. However, a string of unmemorable profanities does not make a sensible Wikiquote article. — Ole.Holm 21:43, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete This article does not belong here because it fails Manual of Style and its pointless.(StarWarsFanBoy 23:13, 10 March 2010 (UTC))
 * Keep. A profane rant, yes, but a famous profane rant.,, , BD2412  T 00:04, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, per nom. Yes, the rant itself may be famous, but the individual quotes still don't stand on their own as anything close to memorable. ~ UDScott 01:42, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment I agree with UDScott. If someone says "the sky is blue" and the fact is reported in a hundred newspapers, it is not notable.--Ole.Holm 12:25, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
 * If all he had said was "the sky is blue" it wouldn't have been reported at all. Also, the full rant is chopped up here. It should be presented in its entirety, or as good an approximation thereof as we can achieve. BD2412 T 02:03, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Sometimes trite remarks do get reported. And if it were presented in its entirety, wouldn't that be a copyvio?--Ole.Holm 12:26, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete: Are we TMZ or are we Wikiquote? This wasn't the first time a public person lost his temper, and won't be the last time the media seizes an opportunity to titillate its audience with an outburst. More power to them, but our mission is somewhat different. Notoriety is but one factor to weigh in concert with several others to determine quotability, and this doesn't come close. ~ Ningauble 17:59, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete per UDScott. An incident may be noteworthy without producing noteworthy quotes. The incident itself seems famous only by the standards of recentism. - InvisibleSun 02:52, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
