Jack Post (radio presenter)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No evidence he is notable outside of his role in The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show and as the redirect was contested, no choice but to afd + delete and redrect. Praxidicae (talk) 23:17, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep Jack Post isnt just on the Christian O'Connell breakfast show, He used to work as the panel operator on the Hamish and andy show, and still works on their podcast. He was basically their on air sidekick as well, and was on their show for years. The thing is that there isn't really any evidence to prove that apart from listening to the Hamish and Andy show, But he was. the irony is that a Band that was formed on that Radio show, between Hamish, Andy and Jack, has a wikipedia article, with seemingly no issues. People would only know who that band is, unless they listen to the show, in which, if they listen to the show, they would Definitely know who Jack is. I Dont see why these Discussions need to be made, as Jack is notable enough in Melbourne and Australia, to deserve a Wikipedia article. plus he has 42k instagram followers, I believe that shows that he is notable in Melbourne Radio — Preceding unsigned comment added by NickBarker123444431 (talk • contribs) 05:21, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete There is some "media personality" reporting but it is all very routine as far as I can see.  Subject does not seem to have done anything notable / creative yet.  The one, minor award is not enough to get over the GNG line.  Aoziwe (talk) 09:40, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep He is notable as an on air presenter for multiple radio shows and TV series. Most notably with well known Australian comedy duo Hamish and Andy, who have their own article. He was the on air producer for their radio show as well as being the third host of four seasons of "Hamish and Andy's Gap Year", a Logie award winning tv series. He has recently been on the Christian O'Connell show, which I agree is less notable, but his time with Hamish and Andy, should more then qualify him for a page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.156.134.11 (talk) 18:09, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep I believe Jack Post is notable enough to be eligible for an article entry. The way I came across the disambiguation entry for Jack post was because I was trying to locate a page for Jack Post (radio presenter). I saw the initial article once it was created by another user and I spent a good time rewriting and properly referencing the article with quality independent sources. The Hamish & Andy Show is arguably the most successful radio show ever created, networks around the world have used it as a case study and tried to emulate it. Outside of the two main hosts, Jack Post was the third host and show producer as well as being heavily involved in most other things under the Hamish & Andy brand name. Now that he is creating a lot of content outside of Hamish & Andy such as The Christian O'Connell Show and his image in Australian media is building, it makes sense that the subject should have his own article. I believe it is within the encyclopaedic scope to include Jack Post in Wikipedia when considering the Australian audience. Fingman (talk) 21:50, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Jack Post is a notable person in Australian entertainment. His contribution and involvement to the Hamish & Andy show alone is enough to warrant him a Wikipedia article. Hamish & Andy have said so themselves in interviews how integral Jack is to their show and its success. His work on the Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show is another good example of that. He is heavily involved on that show on air. In Melbourne he is very well known. He has a blue tick on instagram too. BungalowUnit (talk) 01:01, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment FYI "keep" !voters above. Please note that notability is WP:NOTINHERITED, so unless the subject had some specific and reliably referenced contribution to the H&A Show's success that stands up in its own right then it does not count.  If the subject's claim to fame is mainly derived from the H&A Show then the best course of action would be to have a paragraph or two, or even a short section, in that article for the subject, for example about being the third host and producer, with a redirect to that section.
