I originally tagged this BLP about a journalist as having notability issues in 2023. I have carried out WP:BEFORE, and added a reference to the time he spent on an uninhabited island as a teenager, which got some coverage. WP:BLP1E applies, however, as I can't find other independent, reliable sources to demonstrate that he is not a low-profile person. I don't think he meets WP:NJOURNALIST.
