Allan Fairlie-Clarke

Non-notable person. Allanfc is the creator of the somewhat notable browser game Battrick, a spinoff from the notable game Hattrick. I don't think this is sufficiently notable, and the links in the article do not seem to demonstrate widespread interest. The media interest claim surrounding selling his house to follow a cricket tour is not notable. I appreciate I could get some stick on this, as Allanfc is popular among Battrickers.

 * Keep The creator of the second biggest cricket browser game, over 8,000 users play and he is fairly well known in Hattrick and is a senior member of the Barmy Army. His main notability isn't his tour of Australia with the English cricket team, but the creation of Battrick. I have added an interview with him and will provide more links to prove his notability. However, I will withdraw my vote if the nominee thinks there is absolutely no notability for him to be on Wikipedia, otherwise I will continue to try and prove it -- JRA WestyQld2 09:16, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment As a side note Zedco has been editing Wikipedia for 4 days, in that time he has edited about 50 AfD's and voted delete on every single one his opinioned is already biased and made up, surely WP:POINT has to apply here? -- JRA WestyQld2 09:24, 26 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep Battrick is only getting bigger, and this guy has been in the papers (The Sunday Mail in Brisbane, Australia) and I think that the wiki on him proves he is notable, at least to some people and it has information on him that may well be useful to people who want to know more about the creator of Battrick in the future. Another thing is, there are article on people which hardly anyone would know of yet they don't get listed for deletion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rolande (talk • contribs) 11:09, 26 March 2007 (UTC).
 * Keep Although I have no interest in this game, or any interest in the poor soul who invented it, i must say keep.but only to appease the legions of fans battrick has, who will no doubt want to know more about their idol, Allan Fairlie-Clarke Kirbyexclamationmark 11:14, 26 March 2007 (UTC) — Kirbyexclamationmark (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Keep Definitely should be in here. No reason to delete. --Cringer 11:38, 26 March 2007 (UTC) — Cringer (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Delete I am addict when it comes to Battrick, however it just isn't big enough to warrant it's creator to have an article. Sole 11:50, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect I'm a member of the Battrick Admin team but doubt at this stage that Allan quite warrants his own separate article. Instead I believe the details could be merged into the Battrick page and then a redirect placed for Allan Fairlie-Clarke to the Battrick article. Earl_CG 12:22, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * This is a decent suggestion. I've been caballing it with JRA and it seems to me that this is a reasonable compromise. MLA 06:59, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
