No sources aside from the two local ones already used in the article (both from the same week). Unable to find anything in Google either. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:31, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fails WP:GNG, article must meet specific guideline criterion and also must meet general notability criteria, article is perhaps a HOAX has no coverage can be established. Eduemoni↑talk↓  23:50, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Not saying its a hoax (there are two sources in the article already, just nothing else on Google) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:54, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete as non-notable. Coverage in a local newspaper does not establish notability.  According to Google News, he got a trivial mention in an NPR piece, too, but I don't see much national attention. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:04, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Yes, he made the NPR piece and also is on a few scattered websites, but that does not mean that is is not notable. I guess I'm basing my argument on the fact that time and again, other news sites mentioned him when talking about the base, such as the Boston Globe did here. If anyone has access to that article, I would love to know if there is anything beyond the first paragraph. He has also made this article (image donation) and was briefly mentioned in this one (car accident, wasn't hurt), so there are more than three stories out there with him, and there are more than two news organizations covering him.

 * Sounds a bit like normal coverage of (somewhat) everyday events. A car accident, at least, would be certain to hit newspapers in a smaller town or closed community. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:46, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I know, but I was putting them out there as stuff that I found. Of course a car accident will be reported, but it also came up in the internet search, so was worth placing. The point I am trying to make is that he is being covered. It's up to the community to decide whether he is notable, but I am presenting my side of the argument.
