Deletion of Robert J. Vezina

Comment: Firstly, GNG is not just "count the footnotes and keep anybody who passes an arbitrary number", so he isn't automatically notable enough for inclusion in Wikipedia just because the article has the ''words'' "La Presse" and "Montreal Gazette" in it — we also test the sources for things like (a) the ''depth'' of how substantively any given source is or isn't ''about him'' and (b) the ''context'' of what they're covering him ''for'', and ''not'' every possible source is of equal GNG-building value. Glancing namechecks of his existence in sources whose core subject is something else do not help to establish his notability; "social notes" columns do not help to establish his notability; local coverage of him in local interest contexts, such as organizing local events or winning minor local awards, does not secure his notability; and on and so forth.Secondly, please read  if you think "it's a straight translation of an article that already exists on the French Wikipedia" is a reason why the article needs to be kept — especially since the maker of that argument was also the ''creator'' of the article on the French Wikipedia, and even the ''French'' Wikipedia's inclusion standards, while not completely identical to the English Wikipedia's inclusion standards across the board, are still much, much stricter than "anybody who's gotten their name into any newspaper twice", so the article may not necessarily have genuinely passed ''their'' inclusion standards ''either''.Nothing stated in the article passes any of our subject-specific inclusion criteria, and even just basic GNG is considerably more complex, and takes a lot more factors into account, than just "article has 17 footnotes in it
