As per a previous AfD, I am resubmitting this. This article fails WP:BIO and is related to Major League Gaming. :: Colin Keigher ( Talk ) 21:53, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete fails WP:BIO - all of these need to disappear. SkierRMH, 22:20, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep He passes WP:BIO by playing at the highest competitive level of his (e-)sport. He has been a member of multiple notable teams, including currently playing on the team considered to be third-best in the world (Str8 Rippin), and he is one of the players signed to quarter-million dollar contracts to play in Major League Gaming. This was noted by Gamespot and again by Yahoo! and Game Informer. Also, if you scroll down here, you'll find a video interview with Morales from 1UP.com. -- Kicking222 16:33, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep, professional gamers that get media attention are certainly notable. --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 16:05, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Carlos Moralez has been featured on MLG's Pro Circuit on USA Network. MLG is a very significant league - it offers the most prize money for its permanant games and has broadcasted shows on USA Network featuring every single player and team on the list. Most if not all players have had articles written about them in their local newspaper. EGM magazine - the most popular gaming magazine (you can get it in any of your local pharmacy stores) regularly feature MLG and its best teams and players. Wall Street Journal published an article about the first contract deal MLG offered to its top gamers.
 * Delete Subject has never appeared in any major international competition, nor has any notable achievements and therefore fails WP:BIO. For clarification regarding e-Sports, view e-Sports and 2006 e-Sports World Champions -- DJiTH 22:49, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
