Only one of the sources listed in the article [1] cover this person in any great detail. This reference won't load for me (and is a blog so not a reliable source), this reference also won't load, and this source doesn't mention this person at all. A cursory Google search doesn't turn up any sources where he is covered in-depth. So in my view he is no more notable now than he was two years ago. ArcAngel (talk) ) 17:28, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

- Comment Outside the article you mentioned, articles 1 and 9 also contain biographical information in great detail [2] and [3]. The other articles support his notability having founded the annual St. David's Day Festival (largest in the US) and founder and publisher of Celtic Family Magazine (largest print publication in US about Celtic cultures). How is this other publisher any more or less notable? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Stead Susangrigg1 (talk) 18:28, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
- WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS does not apply to this article. Founding a company or event is one thing, but establishing notability for inclusion in Wikipedia because of those circumstances is another. Regarding the links I specified as not being able to be seen the Google Chrome browser would not load them for me, so I am unable to verify the contents of those sources, so perhaps someone else can. Sources where this person is quoted also doesn't establish notability, hence the reason why the article is up for deletion discussion. It will run for as long as it needs to determine whether or not the article should be kept. ArcAngel (talk) ) 19:38, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
- I Agree, thanks for the clarification ArchAngel ;) Hopefully someone can open those links and see if they are verifiable.Susangrigg1 (talk) 19:44, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

- Merge/Redirect to Celtic Family Magazine (if that passes the notability test). I was able to see the links mentioned above, but #9 is to the publication in general, not to a particular article. #1 and #2 are interviews with the subject which don't really count for notability IMO. I don't find the required significant coverage in independent reliable sources to meet WP:BIO. --MelanieN (talk) 01:43, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
