Majority of the sources are lists of articles they've written for a particular publication or articles they've written. One or two appear to be interviews with them, but I'm not sure that's enough to meet WP:NPEOPLE. Ravensfire (talk) 19:54, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Simply working for significant newspapers doesn't mean a person is notable. There are a lot of journalists at those companies that don't meet notability requirements. There needs to be several sources with significant coverage about that person. Notability is not inherited. Ravensfire (talk) 13:33, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Delete Writing for reliable sources doesn't confer notability, and I wasn't able to find profiles in said caliber of sources that would demonstrate SIGCOV. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 19:27, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The article is sourced to publications for which the subject is a contributing author. As such, these publications lack independence from the subject and can not be used as sources towards proving notability per wikipedia's guidelines. Fails WP:SIGCOV for lack of independent sources.4meter4 (talk) 21:43, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
