The article does not meet the requirements of WP:BIO. Ash (talk) 11:03, 4 December 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Tim Song (talk) 01:26, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete as spam. Edward321 (talk) 23:20, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete. Sources do exist about this person, but this article is written in a purely promotional style with no sources provided. If someone wanted to write a proper encyclopedia article about the subject, they would basically have to start from scratch, which they should be free to do if they believe they can properly establish notability. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 06:14, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment. The references listed at this Google News search ought to be added to the article. - Eastmain (talk) 14:57, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I agree that, as written, the article can be speedied as spam. That said, it's a short enough stub that I think it can be rescued, if anybody wants to. I've tagged it for such, and we'll see. Ray  Talk 19:38, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep. I rewrote the article but still not sure if it meets WP:GNG would like to hear other opinions, I could go either way. He seems like a big name in Christian comedy and his writing and starring in Crazy Love may put him over the top. J04n(talk page) 17:56, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. The version as rewritten by J04n is much better. -- Eastmain (talk) 21:02, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep I click the Google news link at the top of the AFD, and this comedian gets coverage. AFD is not the place to clean things up.  If you have a problem with an article, tag and discuss it on the article's talk page.   D r e a m Focus  19:38, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
