• Keep. Although the shortwave broadcast niche in 2020 is small, this guy's show continues to be broadcast daily to an international audience (e.g., on WBCQ), and it thus seems to provide him with a certain notability. Additionally, and as evidenced on the current page, his criminal behavior over the years also seems notable, as it has been reported in several independent, reliable sources. The current article, however, would certainly benefit from a considerable amount of pruning. JoJo Anthrax (talk) 20:57, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep This guy is all over the place on shortwave. Even though it is a niche audience, he is very notable in the space, perhaps the single most notable individual at the moment. Pietrus69 (talk) 19:02, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Not my cup of tea, but seems to be well-established as a broadcaster with many sources provided. Oaktree b (talk) 19:39, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• He has received a lot of coverage in sources. Maybe not as notable as he once was, but definitely notable. Keep. Foxnpichu (talk) 21:59, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong keep. Concur with all comments above. Stair has been broadcasting since at least the mid-'80s, and the outreach is worldwide in scope. The subject meets notability standards, and the article exceeds all standards for being adequately referenced. Propose close. - JGabbard (talk) 12:25, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
