WP:BLP of a radio programming consultant with no strong claim of notability under any of Wikipedia's inclusion rules, and no strong reliable sourcing to support it — other than his own self-published résumé on ZoomInfo, all of the "sourcing" here is to the published programming guides of radio stations he was working for, making them primary sources. In addition, there's a conflict of interest here, as the article was originally created by User:Markloud. As always, Wikipedia is not a place where anybody is entitled to have an article just because they exist — notability must be demonstrated via the use of reliable, independent sourcing, but that's lacking here.

• Delete rather than redirecting to one of the radio articles where he's mentioned as my searches found nothing considerably good aside from one listing here and a few mentions here and here. SwisterTwister talk 18:14, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete no indication in the article why the subject should be notable, just another radio man, fails WP:GNG Kraxler (talk) 17:39, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Nothing notable about him. I considered a redirect to Aboriginal Voices Radio, where he is mentioned, but his role in founding that project appears to have been trivial; he was one of the two people who helped to obtain a license. --MelanieN (talk) 22:51, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
