Per my original nom which was overrun by spas 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 redirect. I'llalso note that not a single keep!vote last time was by a user with any experience or edits outside of articles related to the subject.Praxidicae (talk) 19:49, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete Ditto last time.  Only change from last time is two SPA IP article edits with unreferenced BLP and possible hoax material.  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) 23:23, 16 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep Sorry about last time, if it got a bit heated, I think people may have gotten a bit heated just due to frustrations. But I do believe that Jack Post's page deserves to stay. With all due respect though, I dont see why this article should be deleted as it is only adding to Wikipedia, and is causing no harm. While his "fame" started while working on the Hamish and Andy show, in the recent couple of years, his presence has grown in Victorian and Australian Radio and will only continue to grow. The Hamish and Andy show's success is arguably unmatched when it comes to radio success, and with Jack being a producer and in later years, effectively the third host of the show, his involvement in the radio show plays a big part in the show's success. Both Hamish and Andy have said before that much of the show's success in recent years, is all thanks to Jack, and it can be determined that Jack Post was a crucial factor to the show's great success. Jack has also been involved in many other things of the Hamish and Andy show, making regular appearances in the Comedy duo's Logie winning TV series 'Gap Year'. After the Hamish and Andy radio show came to an end in 2017, Jack's presence in Australian radio and comedy has grown and is growing. With his work as a Co-host on the Christian O'Connell show, and his work as Co-host on the Hamish and Andy Podcast, his presence in Australian comedy and radio is what I believe worthy of a Wikipedia article. He has a verified account on Instagram, and with the popularity of the programs he currently works on increasing, His popularity is only going to increase, and I believe, he will be a notable figure in Australian Radio in the next couple of years. Again with all due respect, the comedic band 'Cool Boys and the Frontman' (which is a band made up by Hamish Blake, Andy Lee and Jack post) has a Wikipedia article, with the band being formed as a comedic band for the radio show. Whilst the Band did do many significant things, it was a joke band created by the three, and has significantly less air time than Jack Post. I dont want to point fingers at other articles, but I dont see why this Joke Band created by the three is able to have a Wikipedia article with the band not being active for since 2017, while one of its members, who has a much bigger and growing presence, is not seen as notable enough for a Wikipedia article. While all the things I just said, are reasons as to why I think he should be worthy of a Wikipedia article, there are other Wikipedia articles that exist, in which I believe have significantly less notability, and I believe that if those smaller pages exist, I dont see why Jack post, a rising figure in Australian Radio, is not seen as notable enough for a Wikipedia article.
 * Overall, I'm sorry if this is a bit too long or if it gets a bit heated, but I believe that Jack Post is notable enough for a Wikipedia article, and I am just a bit frustrated at the issues that the article has faced over his notability, when there is evidence that he is a big enough figure in Australian radio. I hope you can understand where I am coming from, and we can all come to a consensus on the debate.--NickBarker123444431 (talk) 10:42, 17 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Comment NickBarker123444431 We all have our subjective views on what should be kept or not kept.  I freely admit I too.  There is no absolute objectivity in this.  It is by concensus.  If I may, however, make an observation on at least one key point you made above, ie,  and I believe, he will be a notable figure in Australian Radio in the next couple of years .  This I can agree with.  He is not yet notable.  Regards.  Aoziwe (talk) 11:11, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak keep. There are a few issues here. Firstly, I never like it when I see the message "This article may have been created or edited in return for undisclosed payments" at the top of an article. Secondly, I am both for and against keeping this article. Yes, he's part of a big show in Australia, but ... does he meet the notability requirements? I don't think so. Regarding your comment above, I think when (or indeed, if) he becomes big in Australia, which I'm sure he will, at that point can the article be re-created. Thirdly, I don't think the sources provided meet the WP:RS requirements. If more third party sources can be provided, I think there's a strong possibility the article could remain.
