The result was

Larry Bundy Jr - Delete without prejudice to recreation if suitable evidence exists


 * Principles that carry weight include the correct statement of WP:NOTINHERITED (per TenPoundHammer, which covers assertions that he works for notable companies, shows or products), and lack of good evidence via reliable sources of notability or even of enough to allow writing of a neutral encyclopedic article.


 * Notability criteria such as WP:GNG and topic-specific guidelines appear to be appropriately considered too. Coverage needs to be significant and about him, and none is presented, much less any meeting that criterion to a good standard from reliable independent sources with significant topical coverage.


 * Claims of being "pretty well known" or "quite popular" do not imply notability, the world is full of interesting or popular things that are not notable here (WP:INTERESTING refers). Concerns that he is not being considered due to cultural ignorance also fail - editors on Wikipedia come from England and the US, and what is needed in any case is reliably sourced evidence and not personal statements of support, which anyone could present (but did not).


 * No evidence and delete assertions well founded. SPA views noted but as usual no extra points raised as a result that changed anything of the above.

Guru Larry's Retro Corner - No consensus - default to keep without prejudice to any future discussion


 * The article here is much better founded. The series lasted, there are cites in the article, there is a visible reason why it might be notable. There is almost no discussion at this AFD either to show any consensus to delete.

Damn it, Twinkle, quit failing on me.

Anyway, no sources found anywhere. No hits at all on Gnews for the creator or his website. Simply being part of That Guy with the Glasses and several other shows isn't enough — you'll notice far more prominent names like Linkara don't have articles. Only sources are TGwtG wiki and a YouTube video. Absolute failure of WP:WEB. Game Network may be notable, but I see no evidence that Guru Larry is. Also, none of the shows he's worked on seem notable, so they're going to AFD as well. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 20:42, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep, Linkara doesn't appear on several TV shows. I would say that since he has presented several notable shows, TV channels and video games that have Wikipedia articles would ergo make him notable also.--FirecrackerDemon (talk) 08:21, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
 * WP:OSE, WP:NOTINHERITED. Sorry, you lose, try again. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 19:47, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Really? "Sorry, you lose, try again"? Did I stumble on Wikipedia or Encylopedia Dramatica?--FirecrackerDemon (talk) 06:01, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

 Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:28, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Actors and filmmakers-related deletion discussions.  -- Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:29, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:N, WP:ENT. Doesn't inherit notability for appearing on non-notable shows either. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  04:39, 9 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep I still say keep again, as he is credited working on shows such as Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe & Gameswipe (which I see someone has added since) amongst notable televisions shows, websites and networks.  I would use the adage, "what difference does his article have from other TGWTG members like Spoony or The Nostalgia Critic? or even other gaming presenters such as Robert Florence"?,  But I know the reason why I can't add it, so no need to quote me.  But I shall look out for more information to make this concrete.  I've seen numerous press releases about hjim Etc.--FirecrackerDemon (talk) 06:43, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * You cannot vote twice; you can make more comments like this, that is fine, but I have stricken the bold part at the beginning. Tarc (talk) 14:10, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * See also WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS. Besides, That Guy with the Glasses itself was up for deletion recently and only missed deletion by a hair.  It likely wouldn't survive another vote and certainly nobody can claim notability by being associated with it. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  15:47, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Really? I did not know that.   But my vote was for this second round.  considering the first time it passed.   But you have to realise that he is a UK television presenter as well, not just one the web.  He's on TV right now even on Showcase TV and Information TV (coincendentially the showcase TV article appears to be incorrect as it is on TV still,  unless it's another channel of the same name).--FirecrackerDemon (talk) 03:02, 10 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete - Non-notable web presenter. Tarc (talk) 14:16, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Again, he's a Television presenter in the UK --FirecrackerDemon (talk) 03:05, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Just as non-notable for that as well. And this isn't "round 2", it is just a continuation of the same debate; no one "won" before it was relisted. Tarc (talk) 03:12, 10 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Out of curiosity, is anyone voting here from the UK at all? As it seems slightly unfair to vote on someone from another nation/culture, just because you've never heard of him, nor any knowledge/experience.--FirecrackerDemon (talk) 03:35, 10 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep He has appeared as a presenter for numourous national TV shows, for broadcasters which themselves are notable. He has also produced videos for the biggest game retailer in the UK. While I argee that only being part of ThatGuyWithTheGlasses doesn't make the person notable enough for an article, Larry Bundy has been the host for a portfolio of professional TV shows. Anyone who says he has only been part of webshows is uneducated on his career, and shouldn't be discussing notablity because of it. The article does need a clean up, but it is notable, and it should stay. --User:ImNotADoctor5 —Preceding undated comment added 07:11, 10 November 2010 (UTC).  — ImNotADoctor5 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Keep Larry is a pretty well known UK presenter. Just because he is only known in the US from his web videos doesn't make him a 'web personality' who deserves deletion. Are you going to try and delete every non-American minor celebrity on the grounds they're not well known enough? Ehdee — Ehdee (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Keep Larry is quite popular in the UK and as even appeared on the prime time consumer program, Watchdog. He is also a video game artist. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.8.9.234 (talk) 13:51, 10 November 2010 (UTC)  — 92.8.9.234 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Comment. I haven't checked for sources, so won't offer a recommendation, but I must point out that "has even appeared on Watchdog" is far from an indication of notability. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:01, 10 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep Larry has been on many different Websites and TV shows. Not Even the AVGN has been on TV, bar that one time "You know whats bullshit" was on the news. Larry HOSTED TV shows, 3 on XLeage alone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SnakeWaffle (talk • contribs) 15:08, 10 November 2010 (UTC)  — SnakeWaffle (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
