Doesn't satisfy the criteria detailed at WP:CREATIVE (which includes journalists), hasn't been widely cited by peers or successors, no new concepts/techniques/major roles/critical attention or significant contributions. (WP:ENTERTAINER does not apply here, per discussion here.) ƒ(Δ)² 17:53, 8 October 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Tim Song (talk) 00:05, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep as meeting the qualifications of WP:ENTERTAINER which specifically includes "Actors, comedians, opinion makers, models, and television personalities", and which point is brought up in the above referenced discussion. The guidelines of WP:CREATIVE and WP:ENTERTAINER are not mutually exclusive as both fall under the guiding principles of WP:BIO and WP:GNG. If a journalist is also a television journalist, he becomes a television personality and/or opinion-maker and may be judged by both or either subordinate criteria, or we may simply swim back upstream to BIO or GNG.

 * Keep – He's one of the more prominent reporters at CBC News, so I expect with some digging he would meet the general notability guideline. I've started that work and have added a couple of sources since the AfD began. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 03:47, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
