No reliable sources. The only link is an archived presenter page. UK Wiki User ( talk) 22:07, 17 April 2019 (UTC) reply

• Delete. Former local radio presenter with no reliable sources. The only sources provided are presenter pages with no third party sources to be seen. I was unable to find much when searching on Google other than his Twitter, Facebook, Mixcloud etc. Toby Hynde ( talk) 09:57, 18 April 2019 (UTC) reply

• Delete. Clearly fails WP:BIO. Not much references on the page. Germcrow ( talk) 11:21, 18 April 2019 (UTC) reply
• Delete - Fails WP:GNG. -- Dane ^talk 02:11, 19 April 2019 (UTC) reply
• Stronger KeepHis current position is Managing Director of Manx Radio on the Isle of Man. There are now four inline citations. He is clearly well referenced and has a notable position as Chris Sully, his real name. Please tell us which references are not reliable, and why he is not notable as a current radio managing director. I will now get more references for him as Chris Sully, his real name, and create a redirect to this page.-- Dthomsen8 ( talk) 16:23, 20 April 2019 (UTC) reply
• Delete. Being the managing director of a radio station is not a free pass into Wikipedia just because it's been stated, firstly — it can get a person in the door if he can be really well-sourced over WP:GNG, but it is not an instant notability freebie that automatically entitles him to keep an article just because he exists. So we come to whether the sources get him over GNG or not, to which the answer is no: having a staff profile on the self-published website of one's own employer is not support for notability, so sourcing his work for BFBS to the BFBS website counts for nothing, and the "Pirate Radio Hall of Fame" is not a reliable source at all, so having a profile on there counts for nothing either. So all we've actually got here for GNG-worthy coverage is two very short blurbs about the announcement of his new job with Manx Radio — but again, that's not an inherently notable role, so it would take a lot more than just two employment announcement blurbs to get him over the bar for it.
