Deletion of Gene Haynes

Comment: I want to explain the reasoning behind my vote in more detail. There seems little doubt that Gene Haynes has been an asset to his community.  However, every community has many people of whom that can be said, so that alone wouldn't seem to make him "encyclopedic". My comment on "local sources" was meant as a question/challenge to the editors who said the coverage was not local because he "got statewide and regional newspaper coverage" and "has been cited extensively in media sources beyond his local community."  It may also be worth reminding people that  says "Human interest reporting is generally not as reliable as news reporting" and  says "Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability". High school football coaches and principals are rarely considered WP notable, regardless of duration

Comment: Don't believe  is met. None of the awards he's received are major. The street name change only affects the part of the street beside the school where he's principal. I found nothing to show his record as a coach or principal is notable.  says a person should be "remarkable", "significant", or "unusual enough to deserve attention" and I don't see that he meets any of those. He appears to be well thought of and has been in his position for a long time, but neither of those meet any notability standards. Not seeing broad geographic coverage that would distinguish him from the "local heroes" that   are honored in every town

Comment: Fails . I'm assuming the person who brought that up is referring to #1 "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times." This would be something like the Medal of Honor or a Nobel prize. He has a bunch of little known awards. The "street named after him" is only for part of a street that is near his high school. The sources for the little known "African-American Congressional History award" (hardly any search results) are "US Fed News Service" and a .gov site - not independent coverage. The local news coverage doesn't show that he is known throughout his state
