non notable figure in our field Droliver (talk) 18:49, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
- Keep Since you mention USA Today, I would use this as a ref.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 19:39, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
- Note that according to The New York Times he was the subject of a television special--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 19:39, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
- Also get the "McKay McKinnon" site:chicagotribune.com search results in the article.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 19:39, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

- Keep - Plenty of indication in the footnotes without having to visit Google that this is a plastic surgeon who passes GNG. Carrite (talk) 00:37, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
A passing reference in an article (more about the patient and her weird tumor)does not notability make. Please refer to the individuals academic accomplishments, notable contributions, etc.... There is a complete absence of accomplishments you'd use to assess professional notability. This is not someone of note in contemporary plastic surgery by any stretch of the imagination.Droliver (talk) 21:48, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- Keep His citations at Google Scholar are not enough to pass WP:ACADEMIC, but the press coverage unearthed by Tony the Tiger is more than enough for WP:BIO. Dr. Oliver, please familiarize yourself with the various criteria for inclusion at Wikipedia, such as WP:ACADEMIC and WP:BIO. A person may be notable as an individual, based on significant coverage by independent reliable sources (WP:BIO), even if his professional accomplishments do not establish him as a leader in his field (WP:ACADEMIC). --MelanieN (talk) 08:25, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
- Keep Gets coverage for various activities of his. Dream Focus 15:56, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
- Keep Dr. McKay McKinnon is both clearly and obviously notable. CNN, today, covered a Vietnam surgery that he led: http://www.cnn.com/2012/01/06/health/vietnam-tumor/index.html?hpt=hp_t3
