Rick Jeanneret
I question this page for both the notability of the person and for the worth of the quotes. I don't know that a local hockey announcer is quite notable enough to have his own page and the quotes do not seem particularly memorable or pithy (unless, of course you are a Sabres' fan). — UDScott 17:26, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete I don't know about the notability but the quotes are poor. And whu are they all in BLOCK CAPITALS?!?!? Poetlister 16:45, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per Cato, Yehudi. Cheers! BD2412 T 05:19, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete unless content replaced by reliably sourced, original, pithy quotes (which follow Wikiquote formatting guidelines, too). Just as Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, Wikiquote is does not collect everything that even famous people say. The material should have some value for use outside of archival purposes. Finding reliable sources that quote Jeanneret (i.e., that consider his statements worthy of preservation for posterity) would solve both the pithiness and sourcing requirements. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 19:29, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Explanation. I was the one that created this page. The content of this page was originally created in the Wikipedia article on Mr. Jeanneret and quite frankly it didn't belong there. There are some reliable sources for many of the calls, including the Sabres' Web site, for starters. But yes, it does need some serious cleanup. That, I can agree.
