Joe Luginbill is non-notable. A number of Wikipedia accounts have been created by Joe Luginbill himself. Asher Heimermann (talk) 18:15, 20 April 2014 (UTC) Note: Nomination process was incomplete here; the nominator created an improperly formatted nomination and then failed to add it to a daylog or a delsort. I've repaired the nomination and have transcluded the discussion as of April 25. Bearcat (talk) 18:46, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Another non-notable, local figure. I would note that this deletion nomination is in need of being placed in categories.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:43, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

Having now read the article in more depth after repairing this nomination, I'm not seeing a strong claim of notability here. Apart from purely local committee and board positions, the only substantive notability claims here are "X number of views for a YouTube video", which is sourced only to a Facebook post and not to any reliable sources, and the fact that he hosted a talk show on BlogTalkRadio, which just like YouTube is not a platform that confers automatic notability on its personalities if they haven't broken out to garner real RS coverage. Virtually all of the sourcing is to local media, unreliable sources and passing mentions of his name in coverage of other topics, thus failing to constitute substantive coverage of him in a broad enough range of reliable sources to get him past WP:GNG. In other words, no evidence of properly encyclopedic notability has been provided here. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 19:39, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete A completely non-notable young man who is engaged in self-promotion. Wikipedia is not for that purpose.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  01:21, 26 April 2014 (UTC)
