I could not find coverage to meet WP:BIO. Only 1 other article links to this. LibStar (talk) 04:46, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom; I searched and was unable to find meaningful coverage of this individual. Left guide (talk) 08:17, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete he was also known as 'magic' and 'mago' and there is also a Australian footballer called Michael 'Magic' McLean, which confuses things. The broadcaster was clearly liked and admired, but there's not enough coverage out there to pass WP:GNG. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 09:27, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. There are many similar names that make confusing and difficult to search but was able to find one more source here[1]. If this is added I think it could pass minimum notability given that the subject is deceased. Mekomo (talk) 11:28, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Horizontal or vertical, he has to pass WP:GNG, and a short obit in a radio trade title won't do that... Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:25, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
