- Delete Non-notable. News search turns up one WP:RS reference, from the Washington Post, and otherwise just a few minor references from the 1990s [1]. The article is completely unsourced, but even if everything in it is taken at face value, it does not add up to notability by WP standards. He was the announcer for minor league sports teams; he was a local program director and hosted or co-hosted local radio programs; that's about it. I'm sure he has or had devoted fans but that's not enough to qualify for a page in an international encyclopedia. --MelanieN (talk) 19:43, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak Keep and trim. He is the sole subject of this profile piece int he St. Petersburg Times. His appointments and moves to various radio stations have been noted in bizjournals, [2], and Billboard, [3]. Not a huge amount of coverage, but enough to skim over the notability bar for me. -- Whpq (talk) 14:30, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
