  • Delete Non-notable person of zero intrest! Melvis 17:01, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete: Mid-market station, so it's not exactly WJCL or something. However, he's just Arnie Pie in the Sky for this station. The article gives us no reason to suppose him more than a routine worker. Geogre 03:08, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, passes WP:BIO. Kappa 05:08, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, why so delete-happy? ℬastique▼talk 05:23, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Just because someone is on TV in one city on one station doesn't mean that they are "widely recognised" and "well known" even in their own city, let alone their own country. They have done no national TV work, so they are still not notable, which is why I still say Delete! Spotteddogsdotorg 14:55, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
