While I would have imagined otherwise from the Man of the Year (Playgirl) title, I did not find reliable, secondary sources providing in-depth coverage of this male model and personal trainer in order to evidence notability under GNG, nor reliable sources to verify the claim under any theory of inherent notability. Some blog coverage, and I'm sure the books in the bio include photos of him, but I don't see via Google or in the article history any biographical coverage. Additional sources welcomed, as always. joe deckertalk to me 20:10, 31 July 2011 (UTC) Withdraw, see below.[reply]
- Keep: The award as Man of the Year signifies that he is notable. The secondary and/or reliable sources you would be looking for would be found in the magazine, I would guess, and that satisfies WP:BIO, which is the ruling notability guideline here.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 20:17, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- If that can be reliably verified, I have no trouble with calling the claim notable. Appears the relevant issue would be June '06, says [1]. --joe deckertalk to me 00:52, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- The publication in question would reliably verify it wouldn't it? We don't need a copy of the magazine itself if digital reproductions of the cover have him on it and the words "MAN OF THE YEAR" somewhere.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 00:55, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, we edit conflicted, I'm withdrawing based on the information visible on that cover. Give me a sec and I'll mkae it official. --joe deckertalk to me 00:56, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Withdraw as nom, cover image above sources the claim. I could quibble about whether that site is correctly reproducing the cover, but even I'm not that pedantic. The link I provided includes a picture, "Man of the year 2006", the Playgirl title, and the guys name, I'm convinced. --joe deckertalk to me 00:57, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
