An article on this subject was deleted by AfD in April 2012. The comments in that AfD look applicable to this new instance too. However, the 3 minute feature from 2015 on CBS News probably makes this worthy of a new discussion. That said, interviews and photographs with notable individuals do not result in inherited notability for the interviewer, and my searches are finding nothing that I regard as overturning the previous AfD conclusion.

  • Isn't creating the educational program and teaching foreign born students about American culture and history notable?Jewjitsu84 (talk) 20:39, 28 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Educators at this level have no inherent notability, and the GNG definitely isn't met. Exemplo347 (talk) 20:43, 28 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Please note that the creator of the earlier deleted article edited the previous AfD after its closure to remove parts of the comments by User:Softlavender and User:MelanieN in this revision so it is no longer a fully-accurate summary of that AfD discussion.

I've rolled that back just now - see here - hopefully that's not going to need doing again. Exemplo347 (talk) 21:00, 28 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. No evidence of passing WP:GNG or WP:PROF. A puff piece in a very local newspaper doesn't count for much, and we have nothing else. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:51, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as unconvincing in WP:PROF. SwisterTwister talk 02:12, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete (and salt). Too slight for notability. Xxanthippe (talk) 07:26, 30 January 2017 (UTC).[reply]
  • Delete. The one article on him is good but it's only local, so doesn't reach WP:GNG. -- Softlavender (talk) 04:25, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and salt. Certainly doesn't meet WP:PROF, and a piece in the local paper and three minutes on the telly doesn't come close to the WP:GNG. Salt because it's already been deleted once; didn't get through AfC either; and the SPA(s) involved are showing a worrying willingness to circumvent policy with multiple accounts involved, bypassing AfC and deleting portions of others' comments in the previous AfD (!) with a misleading edit summary. We shouldn't waste any more volunteer time on this. – Joe (talk) 13:34, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete No salting required. It's been recreated only once. Other than that, agree with the deletion. Lourdes 18:01, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
