Deletion of Jim Hawkins (2nd nomination)

Comment: Not because of the request, but because Wikipedia doesn't host articles on Wikipedia:Notability (academics)|all professors, |all businesses, all radio show hosts, and so on. Notability criteria are discriminatory and I don't see any evidence supporting Jim Hawkins being a notable radio show personality. There are thousands of radio show hosts. A google search shows no basis of notability beyond "hosts an unexceptional show on a radio station" http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&hs=yBz&num=100&q=%22jim+hawkins%22+-wikipedia&aq=f&oq=&aqi=g1. His BBC profile shows a couple of minor awards, again not enough to substantiate "notable radio presenter" http://www.bbc.co.uk/shropshire/content/articles/2005/04/12/radio_shropshire_jim_hawkins_person_profile.shtml. There's (apparently) nothing else. There isn't a criterion for radio hosts but a look at Wikipedia:Notability (academics)|criteria for academics shows quite a high standard communal standard is set, for notability in professions which have many individuals

Comment: We are allowed to use judgment and common sense, and there is no requirement that Wikipedia have an article on ''all'' people who might pass . The subject (until |evidence to the contrary is provided) might be a very marginal "pass", if one accepts the argument that all BBC radio presenters are notable, without any |analysis. It appears the main point of notability is that the subject uses Twitter after not liking Facebook, and that does not seem a good basis to keep an article

Comment: the subject's desire to ''not'' have an article about themselves is irrelevant.  The only thing that trumps |verifiable and |notable information is , and that does not appear to be an issue here

Comment: Clearly passes the  notability threshold. Any  concerns can be dealt with in the article. Wikipedia is attempting to be a serious encyclopedia and that means focusing on the encyclopedic content irrespective of the subject and their desires. We do not let subjects write their own articles nor should we give them management over whether or not an article on them exist at all

Comment: as the article clearly meets the requirements of  and  issues can be addressed as they arise. The references are decent (could use more non-BBC references) as well. The subject of this article has gone beyond minor notability and will need to deal with having an article. There are no valid reasons to delete it

Comment: The individual is a willing public figure. Therfore, with all due respect to the subject, we should not delete this article. Courtesy deletions should not occur for willing public figures. The individual meets |notability so we are more or less done here
