Some sources by him, some sources where he speaks as a blog journalist, but no reliable, independent sources about him, as far as I can see. Fails WP:JOURNALIST: a few instances where he is used as expert are not enough to meet the "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors." requirement.

- Do you not consider the sources of Swiss National TV (Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen), the largest free (Blick am Abend) and the other publishers (Tages-Anzeiger, NZZ) important?
Keep. --Swisswikia (talk) 09:32, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- He works for Blick am Abend, your link is to an article by him, not about him, so that is not an independent source. The Swiss TV is a short interview with him, but he is interviewed because he works for them apparently (he is labeled "Digital-redaktor"). Again, not about him. The Tagesanzieger is a short passing mention, not a source about him at all (it doesn't mention anything about him except that he is a Swiss blogger. The NZZ source is similar, he is one of a number of bloggers mentioned, in his case with the description "a co-organiser of search.ch events". Such passing mentions are not sufficient to base an article on. He needs to receive significant attention about himself, not about general blogging issues, from independent sources. Fram (talk) 09:42, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- But it is certainly sufficient for the category "Swiss journalists" and "swiss bloggers", because for this he has enough sources. In my opinion, he is an expert in the field and as such is interviewed and writes contributions about it.--Swisswikia (talk) 10:03, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- being a member of a category is not sufficient (there are thousands of Swiss journalists and Swiss bloggers). Please check our notability rules for biographies; not everything that is verifiable, not everyone who gets a few media appearances, is notable enough for an article.

- Delete - another journalist / blogger. Nothing notable.--Rpclod (talk) 01:43, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
Keep- see above. A very well-known Swiss journalist and columnist.Swisswikia (talk) 18:48, 6 November 2016 (UTC)- Please don't try to !vote multiple times. If the subject is well-known, authoritative reference should demonstrate that WP:CREATIVE criteria are met. That does not seem to be the case at present, but edits are always welcome.--Rpclod (talk) 00:17, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
