Probably non-notable. I cannot find sources beyond the one listed, and receiving the Medal is not sufficient for notability -- it's the lowest level of the Order of Australia. DGG ( talk ) 21:05, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I can't find sybstantial coverage. FloridaArmy (talk) 01:06, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, sounds like a good bloke, but apart from the Star Weekly (a neighbourhood paper) publication, I'm only seeing the usual directory entry stuff for his business. Not enough third party sources to write a fair article about him. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 01:58, 11 March 2018 (UTC).[reply]
Comment: SBS posted a 13-minute interview with him [1]. In addition to that and the OAM, here is also some more coverage: [2], [3]. SunChaser (talk) 09:08, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

interviews with the subject, print or on other media , do not contribute to notability , and aren ot even reliable sources for anything other than what the subject wishes to say. The other two items are essentially reprints of the OA citation. DGG ( talk ) 01:17, 13 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
