Poorly sourced bio of a game show contestant whose all-time money-winning record lasted 4 days. No evidence of any other notability. Please note, this is obviously not the more notable British criminal. Sethacus 02:35, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as nom. Transient game show notability, which is fine in some cases (Ken Jennings), but not here.--Sethacus 02:46, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Non-notable. Renee 02:49, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, completely non notable, fails WP:BIO.--Strothra 03:39, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - I dunno if he's completely NN, but he's enough so that I'm gonna vote to delete. Spawn Man 05:14, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete nn game show contestant. Dannycali 06:10, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - notable for multiple shows, passes notability guidelines in my view. StaticElectric 08:16, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Competed on several game shows, was, at one point, the money leader of all time.  I think that's enough to be considered notable.  Useight 14:53, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment As I stated, he was money leader for four days. See Articles for deletion/Daniel Avila (2nd nomination).‎ Where do we draw the line?--Sethacus 16:02, 26 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete had his 15 minutes of (minor) fame, but notability eludes him. Carlossuarez46 16:59, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, I would think that anyone who has ever held a record, even if only for four days, is notable; notability doesn't usually expire. This article cites two reliable sources; I'm sure more can be found. Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 20:44, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, as he appeared on more than just one show, i.e. not notable for one show and that's it. Thus, he has some greater widespread notability than if he only appeared on one show once.  Best, --  Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles  Tally-ho! 00:50, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: Fails WP:BIO for Entertainers (television personalities) for the following criteria:
 * 1) With significant roles in notable films, television, stage performances, and other productions. (very, very weak)
 * 2) Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following. (no)
 * 3) Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment. (no)
 * Another issue is that these game shows are most likely notable only in the USA.

 * Strong Delete as fails on notability. Niaz  (Talk •  Contribs)  08:43, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Article provides reliable and verifiable sources to support a clear claim of notability. Alansohn 03:23, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
