Subject lacks notabiltiy. Article fails WP:GNG and WP:NBLP. Four of the seven references are articles written by the subject themselves and most of these journals themselves don't seem to scrape thru WP:N to have an article. AfD'ed it after a prod template was removed. -- Rsrikanth05 (talk) 12:49, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

- Delete: An article about a working journalist. As the nominator indicates, references to the subject's own published articles/blog are insufficient. Any notability claim probably rests on the subject sharing an A. H. Boerma Award in 2003. However while I can see press releases announcing other recipients, I am not finding indication of this as a significant award which would demonstrate notability under WP:JOURNALIST criterion 1 or 4(c).

- Delete: Can't find sources to show that he passes WP:GNG. Not independent enough or varied enough. THEFlint Shrubwood (talk) 18:21, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
