[edit] Vere Wynne-Jones
A minor C list radio commentator, who while alive in a sub-stellar celebrity orbit, is notable now only to his relatives. Like many of us, with a footprint in fine sand, which closes around us on passing. 00:18, 2 March 2007 (UTC) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tayana (talk • contribs) 2007/03/02 00:18:58.

- Keep. He was a news-reader / anchorman on a national television network, apparently; the external links given as sources are not working for me. But I did enjoy the metaphor. - Smerdis of Tlön 17:36, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Google searches reveal numerous articles written about him in the Irish Times and Irish Independent. He was indeed a national news anchor - as well-known in Ireland as Cronkite in the US, if the searches are to be believed. --Charlene 00:00, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. I do appreciate the metaphor provided by the nominator, but the individual in question is notable. I have added a reference that accounts for all of the content. This, coupled with the external links, in addition to several other articles (The Irish Times, for instance, has at least 2 articles about him, but I can't access them as they're restricted to subscribers), sufficiently establishes notability. -- Black Falcon 03:17, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
