The result was keep. Clear failure of WP:BEFORE, and the nominator does not make an argument for deletion that is based in the deletion policy. (And this is the third time I've been able to cut-and-paste this rationale for nominations by the same nominator, too.) The Bushranger One ping only 11:04, 6 December 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete The article is poorly sourced. A lot of information on it was unsourced claims clearly written by a fan and after deleting it they constantly brought it back. This article was clearly created by a publicity company to increase web presence of the person. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zacleaner ( talkcontribs) 27 November 2015‎

  • Keep There's nothing wrong with the sourcing, The Sowetan is a mainstream nationally distributed newspaper. Roger (Dodger67) ( talk) 11:46, 5 December 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Strong Keep - literally thousands of hits on News, these are the first 3 on the first page: this, this (although light on depth), and this. Plus this, this and this. I always attempt to AGF, but 10 seconds of WP:BEFORE would have shown this person as notable. Onel5969 TT me 13:37, 5 December 2015 (UTC) reply
