*'''Keep'''. Although the sources given are print sources, that's not my problem unless Wikipedia instigates policy requiring all sources to be online. Based on what I see here, I believe this individual to be independently notable beyond his famous name, with the added kicker being his involvement with a television station in Chicago. The article does need to indicate ''which'' newspaper chain he now works for, and I will add a request asking for same. (Additional: in doing the preceding I noticed that the talk page had not been restored with the article, so I have done so.)

Revision as of 03:01, 13 January 2008
- Adlai Stevenson IV (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
Article is about former reporter and current media analyst of questionable notability. Speedy deleted per CSD A7, but overturned on deletion review to list on AfD. As this nomination is procedural, I am neutral. IronGargoyle (talk) 04:19, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
- Keep, Adlai Stevenson is known in three television markets. Mike Dowling 13:55, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Notability is not inherited. The ONLY reliable sources seem to indicate his only claim to fame is that he is named after his famous grandfather. Well below notability threshold, WP:BLP1E doesn't even cover it. --Jayron32|talk|contribs 07:17, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Agree with above comment. Simply being a small time media personality with a famous name does not meet WP:NOTABILITY requirements. Guldenat (talk) 08:52, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
- Keep, as the references provided in Adlai_Stevenson_IV#References indicate sufficient coverage in third-party reliable sources as to establish a presumption of Adlai Stevenson IV's notability per the general notability guideline. Such a presumption, being established through objective evidence, outweighs the subjective assertions of non-notability presented by editors supporting the deletion of this article.
