Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David Shankbone
While I would certainly not trust ''Wikinews'' as any sort of reliable source, the individual has received coverage in numerous reliable sources outside the Wikirealm for his work as a journalist, thus meeting the criteria set by . And as interesting as it might be that one reliable source might define him as non-notable in his field, Wikipedia does not use their standards.  We use our own... and it is the extensive coverage of him (despite their definition) that specifically makes him notable per Wikipedia's guidelines
