Nominating per outcome of discussion here.

Original reason: ''This is one of ten 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 nominating those that don't have coverage outside of the CNN related coverage. A few entries have additional external links so I am not nominating those. This particular nom only applies to this article. Shadowjams (talk) 17:57, 19 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep and expand. I agreed with deletion for Bruno Serato and Amy Stokes, but Kayongo has sufficient coverage online for his work in Global Soap in GNEWS archives (apart from the WP:BLP1E coverage of him getting the CNN award) to meet WP:BIO in my opinion.
