This article doesn't have any sources listed, is written rather poorly and should have been speedy deleted. None the less should be deleted. Xtreme racer 18:18, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Comment - I declined to speedy because the article asserted notability, so was inelegible for CSD. Eleven years as a senior news anchor? If this was a U.S. TV anchor (ie, Dan Rather), he wouldn't be here. Lack of refs is not an AfD reason, but rather a reason to post a {{references}} and maybe a cleanup tag.

• Keep Notability seems to be pretty well established, and a google search turns up a truckload of relevant pages, so I'm sure the necessary sources exist. The writing itself could use some work, but that's no reason for deletion. Calgary 18:54, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy delete. It's eligible for CSD as a copyvio of the subject's web site with no assertion of permission. The subject is notable but this isn't the way to do it. Also COI. The page was created by Megistimedia (talk · contribs) - Megisti Media is the name of Mangos' consultancy and production company. Dbromage [Talk] 00:17, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
