WP:BLP of a person with no genuinely strong claim of notability. The main things here are that he worked as a television host and was an unsuccessful election candidate -- but unsuccessful election candidates do not pass WP:NPOL, and the hosting stuff is half unverifiable (I can find zero media coverage indicating that Project X ever actually aired at all — which doesn't necessarily mean it didn't, but does mean that even if it did it still isn't notable) and half definitely-false (he did host one individual documentary that aired as a standalone episode of The Nature of Things, but was never the primary host of the actual series as this claimed he was until I poleaxed it as lies.) Literally none of this is "inherently" notable at all, but the article is referenced nowhere close to well enough to get him over WP:GNG for any of it. Bearcat (talk) 04:18, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete he's got a number of potential "hooks" but I don't see anything presumptive or anything which passes WP:GNG. SportingFlyer  T · C  18:51, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
