Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Robert Buntine
Fails , . We've got an obit in the Sydney Morning Herald that's clearly ''not'' a reliable source. When the SMH prints a news article about a recently deceased person, rather than an obit placed by a third party, they appear to carry the article in the mix with their other main articles. The dedicated obituaries page where this appears is within the SMH's "Comment, Opinion, Writers" section, which consists of opinion pieces, letters to the editor, and obituaries. This indicates that obits published in that section are reader-submitted, presumably paid for, and not subject to editorial oversight or journalistic writing in the same way that a main article would be, and therefore it's inappropriate to consider it a reliable source.  applies, rather than , because, while Buntine was a coach at Newington College, that school is a boarding school for boys, and not a post-secondary institution, which is the level of athletics NCOLLATH was designed to address. If we consider this either within the scope of GNG or NHSPHSATH, we have a case of a gentleman who does not have "significant coverage" in reliable sources
