Re your note on the Smith talk page
Hi. From your comment on the Smith talk page, you seem to think that you can explain why Smith is worthy of an article, and we'll make that determination ourselves based on our assessment of his activities. It doesn't work like that, though. Wikipedia judges a person's "notability" based on signs that the person has already achieved substantial recognition for his activities; all we do here is reflect that. We don't make our own determination based on the person's deeds. The sources you supplied do no more than mention him in association with a game that was the focus of the sources. He was not a focus, and received no substantial coverage from them, as is called for by the general notability guidelines. See WP:N for more about notability.
