Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jan H. Gardner
I wonder on which policy or guideline do some folks base their  assertions. Let us recall that a person can be mentioned extensively in the media but that ''on its own'' does not mean a Wikipedia article should be dedicated to them. Please consult  again: {{tq|If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is '''presumed''' to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list. "Presumed" means that significant coverage in reliable sources creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject merits its own article. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information.}} Emphasis in the original text. That is why we have the many specific guidelines, i.e. about sports people, authors, actors, politicians, etc
