Deletion of John J. Powers(Writer & Comedian)

Comment: I'd really like to encourage that anyone coming on here due to Powers' posts on Facebook or Twitter posts look through our policies for notability and read through the delete comments posted above. Any and all people on Wikipedia must pass our notability guidelines. The existence of other articles that do not pass notability guidelines only means that they haven't been caught and deleted yet. The deletion of this article (if it happens) will be based upon coverage in reliable sources and does not reflect on the merits or ability of Powers, just on how much coverage he has received in reliable sources. Existing is not notability and I'd also like to emphasize that personal attacks or disparaging remarks on Wikipedia editors will not save the article and will only ensure that your arguments towards inclusion will likely be disregarded. Any arguments that fall along the lines of "|I like Powers", "|He's obviously notable because ___" or anything on Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions will most likely not help sway the deletion discussion because this ultimately isn't a vote and these things are closed based upon the strength of arguments that follow our guidelines
