Keep Notable per substantial coverage in reliable sources. That the article lacks citations can be rectified by adding some. Candleabracadabra (talk) 17:16, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The subject is notable in many different areas, has received lots of coverage. While admittedly a poorly written article, 8 years old and not a single reference, Hobbs is a well known celebrity financial advisor, consumer advocate, newspaper columnist, television and radio presenter, and published author. Anyone living in Ireland knows that, anyone living elsewhere could have used a search engine. IMHO User:Theonesean's time would have been better spent on improving the article by adding references rather nominating it for deletion. Snappy (talk) 21:44, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Meets all requirements as far as I can see. RashersTierney (talk) 22:41, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
