Moving from speedy-delete here to AfD. As (apparently) a prominant newsreader in a major city, no way is this guy a speedy. Does he meet WP:BIO as a "Widely recognized entertainment personality"? He's a pretty face who reads the news, I suppose. I dunno, he's probably on the bubble. I'm sending this to AfD out of respect for the original speedier, but I'm not gonna vote.

 * Neutral as nominator. Herostratus 20:01, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete As speedier. Article was one of a group of about 10-12 completely non-notable tv anchors. Original articles didn't make any effort to explain who they were, what station (and location) they were from, or why they were in any way significant to the project. The entries were all 1-2 sentences, with one that topped out at about 4. Get rid of it, when they ahve something useful to add they can come back and re-write it &rArr;    SWAT Jester   [[Image:Flag_of_Iceland.svg|18px|]]  Ready    Aim    Fire!  20:34, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Point taken, but still, articles shouldn't be speedy deleted if they assert a notability that is reasonably believable, see WP:CSD. Speedy delete of bio articles is for "Joe Smith is the coolest kid at XYZ High" or "Joe Smith is King of the Universe" or whatever. Herostratus

 * weak keep he's on a major network in the #3 Nielsen market. I think he's notable. Roodog2k 14:56, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep He's the main anchor on the ABC station in Chicago. That's probably worth more than channel 57 in Wichita Falls. Sounds reasonably notable. Fan1967 00:24, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
