Mark Zito

Biographical article on a subject who does not meet notability requirements. All cited sources are either authored by the subject first-hand or about shows which the subject was in. It would seem the subject created and updates the page himself. Michaeld366 (talk) 16:57, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. None of the sources cited in the article meet the WP:GNG criterion of independent in-depth coverage.  A Google search for ("mark zito") turned up nothing that would satisfy the criterion; refining it to ("mark zito" radio) in order to rule out hits pertaining to other Mark Zitos didn't yield anything more.  A Google News search for ("mark zito" radio) produced only one hit, and it was about a different Mark Zito.  The best I could come up with was a few articles from Syracuse University media; they didn't cover Zito in any kind of depth, and, in any case, coverage of a local media figure doesn't indicate wider notability.
