Deletion of Leon Daniel

Comment: The obit info is not just covered by the Washington Post and http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9402E3DC1430F934A15750C0A9609C8B63 in this obit in the NYTimes mentioned above by Niteshift36.  There is another independent source of coverage http://www.namibian.com.na/index.php?id=28&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=27069&no_cache=1 here in The Namibian, which provides additional details about his work.  He is also talked about in http://books.google.com/books?id=wDI2Q847XXwC&pg=PA25&dq=%22Leon+Daniel%22+%2B+%22UPI%22&hl=en&ei=bCYhTq66LqzFsQKwvInNAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CDMQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=%22Leon%20Daniel%22%20%2B%20%22UPI%22&f=false this book about the sociology of newsmaking, in http://books.google.com/books?id=0PP5plSDbPwC&pg=PA183&dq=%22Leon+Daniel%22+%2B+%22UPI%22&hl=en&ei=bCYhTq66LqzFsQKwvInNAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=7&ved=0CEgQ6AEwBg#v=onepage&q=%22Leon%20Daniel%22%20%2B%20%22UPI%22&f=false this book on reporting in Vietnam, and one of his stories about Jerusalem is covered in http://books.google.com/books?id=n6OL9LyhoG4C&pg=PA80&dq=%22Leon+Daniel%22+%2B+%22UPI%22&hl=en&ei=7SchTquGN6vhsQKgqazEAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4&ved=0CDoQ6AEwAzgK#v=onepage&q=%22Leon%20Daniel%22%20%2B%20%22UPI%22&f=false this book.  I think his work as a reporter is sufficiently documented and discussed in independent, third party sources to fulfill .  Some of these details may come from the obit notices, but there is enough coverage in these above books that supports keeping the article
