Individual is not notable. Has appeared on TV plenty of times but this does not amount to notability. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:51, 26 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:BIO as lacking significant reliable sources coverage. Bridgeplayer (talk) 00:59, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Along with plenty of TV appearances comes discussion in reliable sources, such as this in the Bangkok Post, this in the New York Daily News, this interview in the Miami Herald, this in TheStreet.com, and this in the San Pedro Sun of Belize. Though full articles are hidden behind pay walls, we can find quotes like "New York caterer and chef Ralph Pagano stars in a new adventure cooking series Pressure Cook on the Mojo network and it's a lot of fun" in the Chicago Tribune, "During a rare quiet moment during Taste of Emeril's Cooking Challenge Chef Ralph Pagano flipped a handful of salt over his right shoulder" from the Press of Atlantic City. The title of this article from the South Florida Sun-Sentinel confirms his notability: High-Def Chef as South Florida's Ralph Pagano Works on His Third TV Cooking Show, It's Clear He's Become a Hot Commodity in the Food World. He's notable. Shortcomings in the current version of the article should be addressed through normal editing. Cullen328 (talk) 06:54, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Looks like he meets the WP:GNG. I added a couple of the sources Cullen328 dug up. It's still a stub, but that's not a reason to delete it. Qrsdogg (talk) 22:40, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
