The result was no consensus. There is clearly a lot of news coverage about him, but the question of whether that coverage fails WP:ROUTINE and whether WP:ROUTINE even applies in this case have not been settled. Bearcat presents a convincing argument, but it is true that WP:ROUTINE is part of Wikipedia:Notability (events) and Wikipedia:Notability (people) makes no mention of the word "routine" (except in an irrelevant footnote about IMDb), and it is preferable to settle the matter in an RfC than simply picking a winner in a single AfD. In any case, assuming that WP:ROUTINE does apply I think there are equally strong arguments on both sides over whether he passes the bar. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 06:43, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
