This non-article describes a journalist who a) won a single award and b) some people complained about. There's really nothing here to hang a whole article on. Jayron32 21:15, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No evidence of substantial coverage over time. Nyttend (talk) 03:07, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Google News search finds plenty BY him, but not much ABOUT him. I note that he was interviewed once by NPR, but otherwise nothing. Articles by the ombudsman of the newspaper he writes for do not constitute independent coverage. The award he got is not enough by itself to establish notability; for one thing, it was awarded to a team of journalists, not to him alone. --MelanieN (talk) 01:21, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
