There is no significant coverage in independent published sources. I fail to see how he meets WP:GNG or WP:SIGCOV.- TheWikiholic (talk) 15:34, 7 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Did you even look into the references. The topic has been covered by Telegraph , The mirror , Borehamwood times , Harrow Times , to name a few.

In my opinion the subject meets WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV. Sushant1432 (talk) 04:35, 8 June 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete – the Telegraph source possibly offers in-depth coverage, but is behind a paywall. Other sources are either primary (such as the Mirror source mentioned above) or minor/local, and so the sources overall don't constitute WP:SIGCOV. I'd argue that what we have here is a person who does great work at a local level and I'm sure his book is gripping, but unless and until independent sources write about him beyond what he says himself, he is not notable. --bonadea contributions talk 09:09, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Telegraph is a clear WP:GNG point, I can say that much (if you're on a laptop, try to quickly stop the page from loading, that sometimes work). Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 11:25, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
 * An archive of the Telegraph article is available. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 16:33, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment The Daily mail and Facebook are NEVER reliable sources. Theroadislong (talk) 13:15, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
 * FB=Skynews in this particular case. It doesn't help for this particular discussion, but it's probably RS. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:28, 8 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep per The Telegraph, Ham & High, Borehamwood & Elstree Times , and Watford Observer . These 3 last ones are local but in-depth, and local is not nothing. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 12:10, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
