 * Delete Unreferenced, and the article content may be a copyvio, as it's copied word-for-word from from http://www.nbcwashington.com/on-air/about-us/Pat_Collins.html Neiltonks (talk) 16:10, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete per WP:G12 as most of the content as Neiltonks points out is copied. Despite the claim of 10 Emmy awards, I haven't found much independent coverage of this individual. Since there's nothing to keep, and plenty that needs immediate removal, speedy delete and if someone wants to write an article with sources I can't find, they're welcome to it. -- Non-Dropframe   talk   17:57, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete G12 endorsed; even without it, the subject only has regional Emmys (here the Capital/Cheaspeake chapter) and there's the usual caveat of "newsperson in big media market" where their importance and personal life is usually overstated at a treble.
