The article subject is at best a "fringe" journalist and there have been repeated requests by various editors for his notability to be ascertained without any success. Sitush (talk) 03:15, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete, does not state notability, and seems to be a promotional/ resume. Sumsum2010 · T · C · Review me!  05:06, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete As a losing candidate, he fails WP:POLITICIAN. As a journalist, he has had articles published, but as far as I can tell, has not himself been covered in depth by reliable sources independent of the subject. Cullen328 (talk) 05:35, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete - The article does not denotes his notability, he also fails to meet WP:POLITICIAN, his writing works are not covered by major writing industry or even if he is an independent writer he is not notable in that area. The article also does not references if his works have been published or not (in any newspaper, book or whatsoever), thus failing WP:NRVE. And the article's creator has only contributed within this article, Special:Contributions/Noradavison, if investigated further, that would be a case of either WP:PROMOTION or WP:MYSPACE.
