Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Daniel Atkinson
First of all, this person fails  completely. having said that, the article is worded in a way that tries to establish notability based on that single event with the firefighter and his helmet, and the "caused an uproar" claim is not supported by the provided reference. The reference seems to be incorrect anyway, since the "uproar" must have been caused by http://www.wickedlocal.com/newton/archive/x1720696635/Newton-firefighter-ordered-to-remove-American-flag-from-helmet this, but even if there ''was'' an uproar it seems to have been limited to the local level http://www.google.com/search?q=daniel+atkinson+firefighter+helmet, and it's just  anyway. The rest of the references are also irrelevant and not  at all. I'm sure he did a good job at the Daily Free Press, but that's not not enough. Given that the author maybe got confused and provided an incorrect reference, I'd invite him to update the article to try and establish that this reporter is notable enough to be included in Wikipedia. Failing that, I'd say '''delete
