Austin Grabish (reporter)

Subject does not meet notability criteria of WP:GNG or WP:BIO. Being a reporter in and of itself does not provide notability. I cannot find significant discussion of the subject in multiple reliable sources. ... disco spinster   talk  18:05, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete - Seems like a neat reporter, but not clear what notability criteria he meets. NickCT (talk) 18:35, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Doesn't seem particularly notable on his own, perhaps could be merged into the CBC article, seems to have played a contributing but minor part in the award the group won. Oaktree b (talk) 20:46, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete. The notability test for journalists is not measured by the extent to which you can reference the article to sources which have him as the bylined author of media coverage about other things — it's measured by the extent to which you can reference the article to sources which have him as the subject of media coverage written by other people. But nearly all of the sources here are the former, and the very few which were actually written by other people just namecheck his existence without being about him to any non-trivial degree. And the RTDNA awards, while not nothing, aren't highly notable enough to confer an instant WP:ANYBIO pass in the absence of more WP:GNG-passing coverage about Austin Grabish than just his employer's own self-published "tooting our own horn" announcement. So no, this isn't good enough. Bearcat (talk) 16:02, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
