Mat Dickie

 * — (View AfD)

This article has been prodded twice and its been removed once by an anon IP and once by its creator. As diligent as this game designer is, I do not think he meets WP's criteria for verifiability as the subject lacks reliable sources. Google searches for "Mat Dickie" yield 140 hits, almost nothing I would consider reliable. The article cites 2 sources; however one is his own website and the other, from Scunthorpe Telegraph, is more about his dealings with D12 and Michael Jackson rather than his accomplishments as a game designer. I also suspect WP:VAIN as the creator has only edited this article. Whether that is true or not, I don't believe this subject meets any criteria for WP:BIO.

 * Delete as both non-notable and unverifiable, per the above.-- Dmz5 *Edits**Talk* 05:56, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete With only one source, and not a particularly relevant one at that, it doesn't satisfy WP:BIO. Side note - if you're not sure if this is vanity, it's perhaps not wise to make such an accusation. The text doesn't seem particularly POV to me, for the most part.

 * Delete per nom, particularly with reference to concerns on sources, which look poor to me. WMMartin 16:25, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
