- Comment per Wikipedia:Notability (people) "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" The sources in the article meet this criteria. Subuey (talk) 03:40, 22 December 2017 (UTC)
- Comment-Lets be accurate, the full quote is, "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability.". The coverage fails to support ]
- Delete as there are no actual sources discussing the subject himself, only a scant handful of unimportant local sources that either mention him in passing or are written by him. TheValeyard (talk) 00:48, 23 December 2017 (UTC)

- Keep The coverage is of state significance on a host of political issues that could determine the result of the next state election in 2018, not to mention that the Mordialloc Chronicle which he writes for has received a capital injection. The Chronicle Newspaper Group is challenging News Corp's Leader newspaper group with the intention of having 55 newspaper by the end of 2018. He currently writes for 3 newspapers and again regularly commentates on issues of state political significance — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1.144.108.231 (talk) 06:05, 28 December 2017 (UTC) — 1.144.108.231 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
Just to add. He is a media source quoted in national newspapers owned by Fairfax Media - The Age, Bendigo Advertiser, etc and News Corp - The Herald Sun, Leader, The Daily Telegraph etc. Also referred to in a press release by a notable political in state government and had his views read out in Parliament — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1.144.108.231 (talk) 06:08, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
- Delete There is no in-depth coverage about the subject from independent reliable sources. Most are just articles written by the subject of the BLP does not pass WP:JOURNALIST. --Crystallizedcarbon (talk) 20:39, 28 December 2017 (UTC)]
- Comment - Surely the largest newspapers in Australia are considered to be independent reliable sources? There seems to be 50+ articles of which the subject has been quoted in. Perhaps these could be added to the article on the subject to avoid deletion? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1.144.107.112 (talk) 23:26, 28 December 2017 (UTC) — 1.144.107.112 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- Delete. Being quoted in a newspaper a few times does not make someone pass WP:NBIO. I'd suggest merging to a page on either the Carrum and Patterson Lakes Forum or the Mordialloc Chronicle, but neither have an existing article, nor are they likely notable either.

- Keep The subject has been included in discussion within Parliament, Australian TV, national print media coverage and local print media coverage - this overcomesWP:NBIO — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.219.26.97 (talk) 07:22, 2 January 2018 (UTC) — 121.219.26.97 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.]
