Paul DeRienzo

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Wholly unreferenced BLP, no hits in Google News, unsupported claims abound, inappropriate tone. He's written for notable publications, but I don't think he's notable himself. لenna vecia  17:45, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep and improve. There is an interview with him, as Nashua says:. Also an article about him taking over as Ed-in-Chief of High Times:. Mentioned in passing about infighting at WBAI:, also here railing against "commie fascists" who replaced him as producer on the ststion:. Brief mention of his coverage of a 1988 NY riot:. Mentioned in story on a 'Yippie' squat:. Fences and windows (talk) 23:53, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BLP, without prejudice to recreating a referenced article. Stifle (talk) 08:57, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. There's no assertion of notability in the article and, with the greatest respect to Fences and windows, none of those links seem to constitute "substantial coverage in reliable, third party sources"- they're just passing references. HJMitchell    You rang?  10:39, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
