Keep. My search on Newspapers.com turned up quite a few sources about Androff. While some of the sources are routine coverage, like this two-paragraph blurb from the Associated Press, I was also able to find several in-depth articles.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5] While I would prefer to see more coverage outside of Minnesota periodicals, I think the news coverage is sufficient to pass the minimum requirements of WP:GNG. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 00:28, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Lord Bolingbroke has turned up some sources to show the person meets GNG. Not easy since it is a pre-internet subject. Lightburst (talk) 00:57, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
