I don't think he meets notability guidelines. He doesn't meet any of the guidelines for Creative professionals. The article is written by someone with a close link to him - and the article uses newspaper articles written by him as sources Gbawden (talk) 07:37, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ridiculous reasoning ~~below~~ above [changed by Phil Bridger when moving comment to chronological position], on the following grounds: 1) There is absolutely no tie between the contributor of the article and the subject; 2) Within South Africa, the subject is very notable; Wikipedia policy does not state that only global stars get entries; 3) The article is far from done – as the author has no tie to the subject, it takes time to gather sources; 4) In the context of the subject's success, early articles written by the subject are important; note that the articles themselves are not quoted – there is only made reference to them; also, not all of them are referenced Wiki.In.Afrikaans (talk) 08:57, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
