Having searched the net for references, I am convinced that this person entirely fails to meet notability requirements. He has won a minor national journalism award (along with 30 others in that year alone). But that by itself is not adequate to establish notability otherwise every other winner would have Wikipedia pages. Yes he is a journalist, and his journalism can be found on the internet, but so can that of virtually every journalist in the world. It would seem that the page was edited by someone connected to the subject. It contained unreferenced anecdontes and puffery. George Custer's Sabre (talk) 04:44, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I am unable to find enough substantive coverage of this individual for him to meet WP:GNG, and as a regional bureau chief I don't think he is prominent enough to meet WP:JOURNALIST either. Vanamonde (talk) 07:26, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
