Non notable blogger, advertisement. Bobak (talk) 20:58, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
:delete Agree on both counts, though I note it's only notability that's grounds for deletion. AdventurousMe (talk)

Keep I think this guy is actually notable enough to be on Wikipedia. He appears on radio shows, and in over 3,000 publications. CLCStudent (talk) 18:30, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
::FWIW, there's not a large amount of solidity to this as none of it suggests solidly satisfying the applicable notability or otherwise anything else convincing. SwisterTwister talk 05:15, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete and Draft and Userfy if needed as searches found expected mentions but nothing else solidly convincing. SwisterTwister talk 19:08, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

- Keep - Firstly to call this person is "blogger" is factually incorrect when in fact he's a very in-demand travel writer, most notably with the Huffington Post. [http://www.huffingtonpost.com/johnny-jet/] Is a weekly guest on Leo Laporte's enormously popular show The Tech Guy not to mention hundreds of other television and radio shows and news articles (being a guest on a secondary source is being the subject of and is coverage of a secondary source]]. Looking like an advert is a surmountable problem. --Oakshade (talk) 15:49, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete having a regular blog on Huffington Post is not evidence of notability, as none of those posts are helpful in creating an article about Jet. I can see he occasionally gives quotes to news media about travel topics, but I cannot locate any in depth coverage of Jet himself (being quoted is not helpful to establish notability or write a WP page about him). On this basis, I don't think he meets the WP:GNG or WP:BIO. FuriouslySerene (talk) 17:42, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. All I see are this guy's own site, facebook, twitter, instagram, pintrest, etc. He knows how to work the social networks, but that doesn't meet our standards. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:04, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep - You'll find that the published internet searchable sources do not well document this individual's notability (Although he does have some 84k twitter and 36k facebook followers). However, it appears he has had wide-spread exposure on television, and other means; especially under his birth name: John Einar DiScala. Aeonx (talk) 21:48, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. Social media presence does not equate notability. Significant coverage of the topic is required. SSTflyer 07:17, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
