 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Barely-sourced BLP of a non-notable TV reporter. The only "source" is to his company bio. Unit Anode  05:54, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 * If the emmy could be sourced this reporter might be notable. However comparing the article and the website bio most of the paragraphs are cut and pasted exactly.  I'd have to say Delete as Copyvio.--Cube lurker (talk) 15:33, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 * You're right. This probably should have been speedied. My bad. Unit  Anode  16:31, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Blatant copyvios are removed on sight and don't have to go through process so I blanked all the content. Assuming an emmy confers notability the article can be kept as a stub.  I reworded this sourced claim so it's not a copyvio.  I'll leave it up to others whether it's worth keeping this as a sub-stub if not expanded.- Wikidemon (talk) 16:34, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep It appears that he has been the subject of numerous media coverage, particularly when he joined KYW: . Warrah (talk) 23:56, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Disclaimer: I fully endorse the stubbification of this and any other unsourced WP:BLP article.  Briefly checking I see that this journalist has received enough coverage to meet WP:BIO, including a few awards.   JBsupreme  ( talk ) 22:48, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
