[edit] Tucker Jankosky

Tucker Jankosky (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Does not satisfy WP:BIO, nor preliminary guidelines for local television personalities proposed by WikiProject Television Stations. Amnewsboy 08:19, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Keep - Local reporters are just as notable as the stations they work for. If Mr. Jankosky gets out of the televesion business, he'll lose notability then. --AlexWCovington (talk) 08:48, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Keep - The fact that he is a television reporter causes him to meet WP:BIO's requirement that "the person has been the primary subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the person." Television broadcasts would count as "published works," and the criterion is doubly true because he has worked for at least two television stations. Just because he is relatively unknown today does not preclude him from later becoming more renowned. Additionally I see no guidelines on notoriety listed under WikiProject Television Stations; if the proposed guidelines are accepted, then they should be followed, but not before that time. 345th 20:18, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Can't find any independant sources on him (in the 89 google hits), fails WP:BIO. Reporters would only be as notable as the stations they work for if the stations only had one reporter. Ultra-Loser ^{[ T ] [ C ]} 08:51, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
• Clear Delete does not meet the criteria of WP:BIO. He is only a (small) part of the presumably notable TV station and is not the main focus of the stories which he reports. Eluchil404 12:33, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete — Fails WP:BIO, and does not establish notability in the article. Wizardman 19:22, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
