I think there is enough press like this [56] from the Hartford Courant that contributes towards GNG.  I will try to find more in the coming days.

I was also on an episode of the Tony Bourdain Travel Channel show "No Reservations" in 2010, called "Obsessed" which was about eGullet.  https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6r1n72 and also https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=IUq0uCs3jlw Jperlow ( talk ) 21:44, 18 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the Article Rescue Squadron's list of content for rescue consideration .  Thriley ( talk ) 05:20, 2 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment https://nymag.com/tags/egullet/ is mentioned in places.  New York (magazine) owns Grub Street, which has its articles linked to there.  https://nymag.com/tags/Jason_Perlow/ is mentioned in places there.   Lot to sort through to see if any of it proves Wikipedia notability.   Searching for his name and "Off The Broiler" has some results to sort through.  [58] A reliable source seems to consider him an expert in his field.

Search for "Perlow" you can read him mentioned throughout, information about him given out.   The article is hidden behind a paywall, so I did a select all and copy before the paywall thing came up, then pasted it in a text file on my desktop to read it.  D r e a m Focus 19:05, 2 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete .   The WaPo article is about the company, not its founder, and notability is WP:NOTINHERITED .   It devotes a few sentences to flavor text about the founding, which mention the background of the founder, but this is passing mention.   Simply getting your name in a newspaper article doesn't make you Wikipedia-notable.  35.139.154.158 ( talk ) 00:38, 6 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

ThreeBootsInABucket ( talk ) 22:35, 13 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete .  Arguments to the tune "there are bound to be sources out there" or "he is just notable, for sure" do not cut it.  The best one can locate is a Washington Post article, but that's about a corporation and not our subject.  The rest of the items suggested as sources, e.g. something from New York Magazine , contain insignificant name-drops.  - The Gnome ( talk ) 18:38, 14 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] All the above are true, except for the part about overall lack of sources.  I failed to check old newspapers in websites such as Newspapers com.  After the sources produced herebelow by Silver seren from that website, I find the proper suggestion to be a Keep for the article.  - The Gnome ( talk ) 12:59, 20 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Thanks, voorts ( talk / contributions ) 01:41, 17 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete due to lack of sources about Perlow specifically.  Cortador ( talk ) 02:08, 17 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment I don't have a position on this article's notability, and I don't see any evidence of WP:MEAT at this time, but it should be noted that the subject wrote about this AfD on his blog https://techbroiler.net/my-wikipedia-page-is-being-deleted-because-im-not-notable-enough/ which was posted to Hacker News https://news.ycombinator.com/item? id=39754156 where I encountered it.
