Lack of notability. Are we to include all minor journalists? Setting up a minor tech blog - one of thousands - surely doesn't class as notable. FunkyCanute (talk) 09:47, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
- Comment o.0 Its WP:DYK at the moment. Do we really need this ugly banner when its experiencing the most article traffic? There's no rule for this but it might be a good idea to temporarily postpone this until the DYK period is over. CyanGardevoir (used EDIT!) 09:54, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:BIO, just trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources (ordinary positions and activities). The article was apparently deleted in the first nomination, but has now popped again. Brandmeistertalk 10:00, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
- Comment I would say it's a very borderline case but of interest, the nominator for the first AfD (which was successful) is a contributor to this second-launching version. I would be interested in what he has to say on this. - OldManNeptune ⚓ 10:47, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
- Speedy keep under criteria 5 (article linked from the Main Page at the time the nomination was submitted). --Allen3 talk 12:48, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
- Speedy keep per Allen3. Ryan Vesey Review me! 13:45, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
- Speedy keep Easily passes WP: GNG with many reliable sources. Electric Catfish 14:04, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
- Response It was the link on the homepage under DYK that drew my attention to the article. Fundamentally the article says: the subject is a journalist of no particular merit; and he has a blog, which itself lacks notability. For those reasons I urge Delete, although I take note of the speedy keep argument.
