The result was   delete. The "keep" !voters misinterpret WP:ENT. In order to be notable, he must be a major part of multiple notable shows. As for the "large fan base," Youtube is not a reliable source for measuring notability (see WP:BIG). King of &hearts;   &diams;   &clubs;  &spades; 05:04, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Subject is not notable per WP:ENT. Only role is in one Discovery Channel series. Viable biographical references are virtually nonexistent. Taroaldo (talk) 06:25, 31 July 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:05, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete as the notability criteria at WP:ENT states that an entertainer is notable if he or she "has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." Guoguo12  --Talk--   15:17, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep as the notability criteria at WP:ENT states: "Has a large fan base or a significant 'cult' following."

At the time of this writing the YouTube account lists 1.75 million channel views, 5.45 million total upload views, and 23,868 subscribers.
