While Mr. Rosenberg is associated with the Attica riot, I suspect this is a case of notability not being contagious; at best, it's an instance of WP:ONEEVENT allowing for questionable notoriety; also WP:NOTMEMORIAL seems to apply. While simply being incarcerated for a particularly long time and being associated with Attica IMHO don't convey notability, the other things he has been involved in do combine to grant it. Therefore, this is withdrawn. Tyrenon (talk) 03:23, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

  • Keep Obituaries in the New York Times, Associated Press and other media confirm notability: [http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=jerry%20rosenberg%20attica&sa=N&tab=wn&um=1]. Pastor Theo (talk) 03:37, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep This is NOT WP:ONEEVENT, part of this should be addressed through WP:BEFORE.
