A ways away from meeting WP:GNG, does not appear to meet WP:NAUTHOR. Provided sources do not comprise independent coverage of the subject, an internet search did not turn up additional sources. signed,Rosguill talk 00:13, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Re-Draftify - notability based off being cited/ interviewed by state level radio stations in order to reinforce claims. However yes, per the disclosure, I did take the article up from the subject at their advertisement based off the percieved notability — IVORK Discuss 01:59, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Note that IVORK did not post a paid contribution disclosure until after I inquired about their motivation for working on the article—this is when they posted the disclosure, and this is when I queried them on their talk page. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 02:36, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Being interviewed by radio stations is not an accepted indication of notability. The principal basis for notability is significant coverage of the subject--here, Mr Livas--in reliable sources. We don't needs things written or said by Mr Livas, we need things like newspaper articles that are about him. So far as I can see, those don't exist. --Mkativerata (talk) 02:03, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. There are two reasons the radio interviews do not establish Livas's notability: 1) they are interviews with the subject of the article and hence not independent coverage; 2) the interviews with 4BC and 2GB aren't even about Livas, instead focusing on the Notre-Dame fire. The other sources in the article do not provide significant coverage, and like nom I couldn't find any other sources that would establish notability. Clearly fails WP:GNG. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 02:23, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete interviews about another subject does not make someone notable. I'm quite disappointed that an experienced editor like IVORK would take cash to create and defend an article that does not pass WP:BIO. Pichpich (talk) 03:21, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Interviews are primary sources for which they do not contribute to notability requirements. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 12:04, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - as non-notable. While interviews can be used to cite information, the do zip when it comes to establishing notability as they are WP:PRIMARY. Without in-depth, independent coverage in a WP:RS, the topic is a clear WP:BIO failure. SamHolt6 (talk) 13:25, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
