Bob Bruce (Texas journalist)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This article does not meet the inclusion criteria. Sources are a paid obituary and an article in the paper where he worked for decades. He was a journalist for a local paper, did not win any major awards that I can find and seems to have had no major legacy. Good at his job, but not well-known outside his community.

 * Delete - I agree this article doesn't meet notability. --Kumioko (talk) 18:36, 27 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep, at author's request. This is the major journalist from Abilene in the second half of the 20th century. Abilene is a major city in West Texas. Billy Hathorn (talk) 04:51, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
