Keep and expand: it's a stub. Jack and Jill was a notable British kid magazine. Rhinoracer (talk) 15:50, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I am hard-pressed to believe that an artist working on two extremely long-running comics magazines cannot pass WP:N. As the magazines ended in the 80s, Google is a poor resource to use here - it will require resorting to (*gasp*) print. But it is very difficult to believe that this subject would not pass WP:N.

Keep following Phil Sandifer. It looks like it has the potential to be a solid well-rounded article but will take time and effort. (Emperor (talk))
Weak Delete Sandifer has a point, but the speculation about the availability of reliable sources to write a good article does not to me equate to the existence of reliable sources with which to write a good article, and I have seen no evidence of such.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
