 * Delete Not notable enough to pass WP:BIO. Im a queenslander whos never heard of him :-)
 * Comment With a population of c. 4,000,000 in Queensland can you be expected to remember every person who made it to the local news? User:Dimadick
 * Move to Cherbourg State School, where presumably an article will be created eventually. ...maelgwntalk 04:03, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Why would article be created eventually? No evidence that school is notable. Never heard of it myself and it isn't far from me.--Dacium 04:55, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Also, head of the Indigenous Leadership Institute and regarded as one of Australia's leading indigenous educators. Google News Archives comes up with 51 hits so plenty of sources. Capitalistroadster 03:39, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, WP:BIO. Terence Ong 12:02, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete without references we cannot establish notability Alf photoman 15:18, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete if the school isn't notable either, then there is no where to move this and I don't think it stands up on it's own WP:BIO wise. SGGH 23:23, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Has won Queenslander of the Year and article shows link to a nationally broadcast program about him. Capitalistroadster 03:34, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Capitalistroadster. JPD (talk) 12:47, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong keep Australian Story program alone establishes notability, QUT award as well. Paul foord 00:21, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment please improve the article whilst this AFD is ongoing to show notability there. Paul foord 00:21, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, the man was Queenslander of the year. If that's not notable, then what is?  Lankiveil 09:30, 25 January 2007 (UTC).
 * Keep, dude wins a national award, and gets press coverage. Makes him notable does it not?  Otherwise, why would he win the award? Tomstdenis 14:24, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Winner of notable award ( though the immediately preceding comment is wrong to say that it's a national one, and is sloppily reasoned ! ). WMMartin 14:47, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I should also note that comments about the quality of references seem to date from a couple of days ago. I find the references adequate.
