Straw man.  Not the prevalent idea at VfD at all, but
then, it seems to be common argument of the radical
inclusionist that things like [[List of pizza parlors
in New York City]] is somehow an encylopedia article. 
It has nothing to do with "I've never heard of him"
and everything to do with "He doesn't merit an
article."
