Lex van den Berghe's claim to fame is third and ninth place finishes on two seasons of Survivor. It is questionable whether this qualifies as sufficiently notable. Plastikspork (talk) 00:04, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I think perhaps a merge ito the survivor articles might be more appropriate than a delete Ottawa4ever (talk) 00:56, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Reply Already done. The Survivor material in the bio (basically just glorified recaps) is basically a duplication of information the respective Survivor season articles. I could see merging with one of his bands, if one of his bands had a substantial article, but alas, they appear to be not so notable either. Thanks! Plastikspork (talk) 01:14, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * If a merge has been performed, then we should redirect so the history is retained for proper attribution. - Mgm|(talk) 11:53, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. I'm aware that WP:REALITY is not a universally accepted criterion, but he meets it due to having been in two reality shows (the specific example in WP:REALITY is for two seasons of the same programme).  Possibly not enough on its own for notability, but his association with a reasonably notable band tips the balance for me (his latest effort appears to have some other notable bandmates). Actually, the reason I looked into this was that he was sufficiently notable that I recognized his name and called his face to mind, some years after the programmes aired; again, not evidentiary, but contributory.

 * Redirect to whatever Survivor article the content was merged to, trusting that the content is already on another page. MuZemike 02:08, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
