Google returns exactly 129 unique hits for "Noah Pollak", including this article. All the sources are primary, mostly of the form "he has written in X, source, an article in X by him". Some of the things he's written for don't even have articles. Guy (help!) 17:46, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Delete As other editors nothing found in secondary sources so does not meet gng. However he seems to be pretty well known - he writes for the Hill and is on PBS news hour, just not reviewed or discussed. Davidstewartharvey (talk) 18:36, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete seems to be a clear WP:NAUTHOR and/or WP:NCREATIVE fail, not to mention WP:GNG. A WorldCat search for his work came up with exactly one result, held in six libraries. I got 123 unique entries, but essentially the same thing on google, while search results aren't the be-all-end-all of notability, they can show when somebody is a minor figure. Sources like militarist monitor don't establish notability. He doesn't seem to be a very well known writer, hasn't won any major awards. Eddie891 Talk Work 18:00, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
