Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/From The Fields
I just can’t find anything to show that this passes NBOOK. The newspaper source has two things going against it. The first is that it’s a local source, something that’s greatly depreciated on Wikipedia because local sources are more likely to cover their people as part of a local interest story. Some editors don’t even consider local sources to be ones that can give notability. It’s not something I agree with, but I do think that local sources by themselves will rarely be enough to meet GNG. Sometimes, but rarely. The second is what eliminates it as a notability-giving source, as the paper states that Paolinelli worked for them. This makes the source |primary, as the paper is going to want to cover someone who worked for them because it makes them look good by extension. This goes for any source: if Paolinelli worked for them or the book is related to them in some form or fashion (like if the high schools mentioned in the book covered his work), then it cannot establish notability
