Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stanley Wagner (vintner)
anyone with a full obituary in the New York Times automatically qualifies under the most basic of Wikipedia criteria, that of non-negligible coverage in reliable sources. As Richard Arthur Norton indicates above, newspaper obituaries of this nature might even be called a defining form of notability - you ''must'' be notable to even be considered for an obituary in a newspaper of record such as the ''New York Times''. If Amatulić does not understand this then I suggest they do some more research into the matter before commenting further: in answer to their questions,  1 & 2 apply and  1, 2 & 3 are all met while 4 could be argued to have been achieved
