Not a notable person and article creator was blocked as a sock puppet. JDDJS (talk) 04:53, 31 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment - Claimed notability is that of a two time winner of a high profile (professional?) video game championship... if the game in question was Starcraft, I'm pretty sure this person would meet our notability standards. My only question is whether League of Legends tournaments are of as high notability as Starcraft.  If so, or if at least comparable, I'd have to !vote keep, but I'd like to hear other opinions first.

 * Professional, yes. My feeling is that there is at least as much coverage of LoL as there is of Starcraft (Kotaku, for instance, has fairly regular coverage of both), at least in English-language press. shoy (reactions) 13:56, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I'll go ahead and say keep then. Fieari (talk) 06:27, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep - Easy google search turns up Daily Dot and The Score about him in particular, not to mention all the coverage he has gotten as a part of SKT. shoy (reactions) 13:56, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per Shoy. Also, I'm not certain what the article creator being a sock puppet has to do with the article notability. ZettaComposer (talk) 14:21, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
