This is one of ten (only nominating this one for now) bios created from a CNN award for "a normal person, they're doing a normal job," to quote CNN itself. Point is, this is WP:ONEEVENT and also a good example of how widespread coverage in a national publication can still occasionally not be an indication of notability. In fact, I think that this set of articles is the textbook definition of BLP1E.

Of course what these individuals are doing is great, but it can be sufficiently covered in an article about the CNN Heroes series/award. We don't need new BLPs to do that either.

I'm only nominating this one at the moment to make sure my conclusion above is right... but I would be open to expanding it to the others if there's support for that too. Shadowjams (talk) 02:23, 12 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete. I agree. Clearly WP:BLP1E.  Delete per nom, and let's get on with the others too. --Legis (talk - contribs) 09:45, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Expand CNN Heroes with more referenced content from reliable sources. If the 2011 section there gets too big, then it can be split off to CNN Heroes 2011. If any one person in that new split-off list gets more notable beyond BLP1E, then it can be split off to its own article, but a WP:Walled garden of mini-stubs like these should for now be corralled back into the one article.

 * Delete - Clearly not a notable person. Vincelord (talk) 15:21, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per the above. I'd argue against adding more names to this nomination; if consensus falls to delete this article, you can always cite that as a precedent in a future nomination for the other non-notable individuals on the list. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 18:13, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
