Bob Mackowycz, Sr.

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Delete. WP:BLP of a single-market local radio personality, referenced only to a glancing namecheck of his existence in an overall history of one of the radio stations he worked for. As always, a radio personality does not automatically qualify for a Wikipedia article just because he exists -- he must be the subject of enough reliable source coverage to get over WP:GNG. But nothing here demonstrates that — and the reliable sources I can locate on his name are overwhelmingly more about his son Bob Jr. (a still-current and nationally-syndicated radio personality), with the only hit that maps to Bob Sr. being a one-line soundbite in an article about the El Mocambo. That's not what it takes to make a local radio personality notable enough for inclusion in Wikipedia. Bearcat (talk) 06:16, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
