Fifth place finisher on Survivor: Panama, with no other notable accomplishments. Prior precedent includes Andria "Dreamz" Herd, Cassandra Franklin, Kenward "Boo" Bernis, Bruce Kanegai, ... all of which have been turned into redirects to the season in question.

Delete/Redirect I'm a big fan of Survivor, but this is yet another non-notable contestant. Reywas92^Talk 03:03, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep A very colorful contestant. I learned from his entry that he wasn't in fact a Marketing Executive as portraited on the show. I say keep. 93.173.145.2 (talk) 02:25, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
How did you discover that? The article doesn't say if he was or wasn't a marketing executive. In fact it doesn't really say much of anything. 98.212.141.192 (talk) 04:48, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The history does, before someone wiped stuff for unknown reasons.--Milowent (talk) 05:00, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, no notability, and especially since there are no reliable sources from which to write a BLP. And whether or not the above !voter has been blocked, their opinion is valid. Woogee (talk) 23:59, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep He gets plenty of news coverage [1] when you search for his name and "Survivor". He was interviewed on many notable shows. Dream Focus 05:40, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

From which sources can you compose a bio? Woogee (talk) 19:38, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

He was a contestant on one of the most popular TV shows in the US and is referenced on Wiki pages for the show and that season - surely this is notable enough. I'd hope that if I was on a top-rated US network show for a season I'd at least warrant a Wiki stub. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jabalong (talk • contribs) 14:13, 1 March 2010 (UTC) (I copied this comment from talkpage, I suspect it was intended to go here.--Milowent (talk) 16:24, 1 March 2010 (UTC))[reply]
Keep, and suggest someone try to re-expand and source the article better.--Milowent (talk) 05:28, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That someone could be you! Go for it! I tried, but could not, and hence the AFD. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 23:24, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. His notability mainly stems from one event (WP:ONEEVENT).--Pink Bull 18:38, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
