This is a vanity piece about (and possibly by) a non-notable journalist. Very few relevant ghits, no evidence available of his having any kind of influence. He's interviewed a notable person, which is what journalists do, but notability is not inherited otherwise every journalist would automatically be notable.

Fails WP:CREATIVE: he's not widely cited by his peers, nor known for a new concept or technique, nor won significant critical attention, etc. andy (talk) 16:14, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

  • Delete - I've already speedied this once. Deb (talk) 19:02, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete - no evidence of notability. JohnCD (talk) 20:16, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete: I can't find any sources for him just a bunch of sources about people with the same name. Fails WP:CREATIVE. Schuym1 (talk) 00:05, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete the reference given is not about him - it is an article by him. There was a failed guideline sometime ago which might have given notability for that fact, but not now. Agathoclea (talk) 12:23, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
