PROD declined by article creator without giving a reason. Non-notable individual, fails WP:GNG and any other project guideline. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:36, 25 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep seems to pass WP:GNG with news in the Seattle Times.--Paul McDonald (talk) 11:23, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment this discussion probably needs to be included in deletion discussion lists for baseball and broadcasting... I only have a moment now, can someone else do that?--Paul McDonald (talk) 11:23, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Article was nominated for deletion five hours after creation. It has now been expanded. In my view, article now passes WP:GNG, ~~if barely,~~ and given the nature of his position (the top sports broadcaster in Seattle during the 1960s), access to archives of the Seattle newspapers from that era would almost certainly turn up a lot more.

Keep per Paulmcdonald and Cbl62. Good-faith article expansion has improved the article to the point where it meets WP:GNG. Ejgreen77 (talk) 23:26, 31 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
