S. Scott Conner

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Clear puff piece for a local radio and TV host. As far as I can tell, his main claim to notability is having hosted The Scott Conner Show, a local television variety show (Albuquerque, N.M.) that only aired one season. Very little coverage even in local sources, which does not bode well for notability. I was only able to find three nontrivial mentions of Conner in the Albuquerque Journal, the most significant of which is "Hoping for a winner - Aspiring talk show host selling rights to his program on eBay" (December 2, 2007). This is a decent-length (900 word) article about Conner's (ultimately unsuccessful) effort to finance a second season of his show, and includes some biographical details. However I believe this article is more indicative of the novelty factor of trying to sell a show on eBay than of any real notability on Conner's part. The other two articles aren't actually about Conner, but do quote him in connection with some failed film projects he was involved with. In short, I believe he fails WP:GNG and is well short of qualifying under WP:ENTERTAINER or WP:ARTIST. Camerafiend (talk) 00:27, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Generally in this time, a "late-night (TV) Talk & Variety show" on local TV means "subject purchased paid programming time on the station to put across their views", which means they paid money to get on TV rather than being cast neutrally on a program by the station, which seriously wounds notability, and the radio show mentions are of programs which are of solely local interest. Not really finding anything notable about this person.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 03:54, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - reeks of a resume, not an article. Bearian (talk) 18:58, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
