as anticipated. I don't think there's been a https://www.independent.co.uk/news/media/tv-radio/bbc-question-time-racist-video-immigration-ash-sarkar-twitter-a9349316.html ''Question Time'' panellist in the last 20 years who's been non-notable, because the BBC do a good job of making sure that the people who appear represent some major demographic of the UK in some way. Significant role as a journalist. Significant coverage over the Birchill topic, the "literally a communist" remark and lots of bits and pieces elsewhere. Article as it stands shows notability three times over but there's plenty more coverage out there if someone wants to improve it. The nominator has failed to grasp how our notability policies work:  says that {{tq|People who meet the basic criteria may be considered notable without meeting the additional criteria below}}, so any failure of  would be ''necessary'' but not ''sufficient'' for non-notability—if the user had actually asked then they would have cleared up this misconception. The nominator, who doesn't appear to have much history editing here, has misjudged the notability standards on Wikipedia for a lot higher than what they are. People accept any number of mistakes if you're polite and try to learn, but to do that you have to accept that you might be wrong
