Small town radio presenter. No indication of meeting WP:GNG. Prod removed with claim of being syndicated but no indication of this in the article or on google. Difficult to search for due to other radio presenters with the same name. noq (talk) 19:04, 13 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

delete absolutely fails WP:BIO. Only one primary source supplied . LibStar (talk) 16:47, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, the only thing approaching an independent source that I was able to find is this, which is clearly not enough. Not a comment about his ability in the job, but we don't have enough to write a reliable biography of him that meets our standards for articles on living people.

Delete. A radio personality is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because he exists, particularly if the article's only source is his program's own page on the website of his own employer. If the claims of syndication were reliably sourced to media coverage about him, then they'd count for something — but in 2017, every radio host who exists at all could claim syndication just on the basis of their radio station operating a web stream, so the mere claim of syndication cannot confer an exemption from having to source the article better than this.
