The result was delete. Consensus leans to delete. Sources added to article since AfD was begun appear mostly trivial/passing mentions and includes at least one that is recursive: That source used info from the Wikipedia article for its substance. Pigman☿ 18:18, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article about a non-notable American sports radio personality. InDeBiz1 (talk) 03:17, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete could find no RS on subject. -Icewedge (talk) 03:22, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Something that I missed in my initial read of the article is that the subject has been nominated for an Emmy Award. There is no citation for this statement in the article, but if it were to turn out to be true, is that enough to establish notability? --InDeBiz1 (talk) 03:24, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think so. If he had won an Emmy, then definitely! Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 03:29, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not entirely sure whether this is true - I've just Googled for any mentions of Rob Otto being nominated for an Emmy and nothing seems to have come up. If this claim about him being nominated for an Emmy is false, then this most definately should be Deleted. Bettia ^(talk) 10:58, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. I cant find any reliable 3rd party sources that even mention this person.--Rtphokie (talk) 00:22, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Article asserts notability, more for his work announcing for pro and college sports teams than his radio show, and there are a number of sources to verify much of the article. Finding this [1] after just 30 seconds of searching, I bet there are far more available with more sophisticated searches. - Dravecky (talk) 06:20, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Subject appears to be a notable radio and television broadcaster. RSs look to have been added since this article was nominated for deletion. — X96lee15 (talk) 18:25, 18 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
