DELETE. This comedian is in no way notable, and I'm not joking. JBsupreme (talk) 06:59, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
 *  Undecided:  I have found several sources about Shaffir but am unsure if they are enough to push him over WP:N, so I will be undecided for now. Here is an article from the Los Angeles Times, an article from South Coast Today, and an event listing in San Francisco Gate. He also receives a brief mention in The Middle East, Part 4.

 * Good search results. I believe these fall under the definition of "trivial coverage". For example the LA Times article is focused on the conflict between Carlos Mencia and Joe Rogan, with Ari Shaffir receiving a passing mention, but in no way is it a biographical article focused on him.

 * Delete After further review, I agree that the references are not enough to reference a BLP. Cunard (talk) 07:09, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:ENTERTAINER. The discussion that occurred at Articles for deletion/Amazing Racist might also be relevant here. Location (talk) 03:03, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:ENT. Trivial coverage doesn't change that. Niteshift36 (talk) 05:18, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
