Keep - AfD is not a clean-up service. Simple google search came up with plenty of references to confirm notability. This articles subject is within WP:GNG. That the article needs a lot of work is not a reason for deletion.BabbaQ (talk) 11:45, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Its only name drops as far as I checked.--Shrike (talk) 11:48, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - it's always tricky to establish the notability of journalists as they become famous by writing, and we can't easily evaluate notability from a person's own writings. However, Wahlström is well-known both in Sweden (and he's all over their major newspapers) and abroad (e.g. in Norway), not least for Wikileaks, as this Guardian article shows.

Keep -- I think this is passable; the subject has a sv.wiki article which is indicative of notability as well. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:33, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
