Not notable. Individual is a low-level police officer whose name has been in the media on occasion due to his job as a junior spokesman for the OPP, not due to any notable actions or accomplishments. Should he indeed be promoted to replace his retiring superior, Cam Woolley, as is suggested in the article, AND achieve Woolley's level of notoriety, then MAYBE he will be deserving of his own entry. Until then, there is nothing to suggest he is notable enough to warrant his own entry. PoliSciMaster (talk) 17:47, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

• Keep Give an article a chance. You gave it four hours. I did a google news search and it lit up like a Christmas tree. The nom is one of the weakest I've ever seen. SashaNein (talk) 19:08, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
  • All those links do is to show a policeman doing his job. Corvus cornix_talk 19:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
  • The search isn't sufficiently strict - it finds numerous individuals with this name. Here are results (and more results) from a more restrictive search, but broadening it to the entire web instead of just news results. Mindmatrix 14:14, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
• Delete; not particularly notable at present. If he ever becomes as much of a household name as Cam Woolley is, then yeah, absolutely. But right now this is a stub about a minimally notable police officer created by User:Fat pig73, who happens to be the single most exhaustingly oblivious-to-actual-notability editor in the entire Canadian contingent.
