Mr. Cranky
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Lack of clear notability, sourcing. Does not appear to be particularly notable. Katzman may possibly be notable, but I don't know if Mr. Cranky is. I realize this is the third nom, but two sources? And he gets his reviews republished sometimes in a lone newspaper? Thats not overly notable by today's standards for us. rootology ( C )( T ) 13:42, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - I reviewed the previous AfD. There is a lot out there that isn't added to the article yet. I believe notability has been established, but the article requires significant cleanup and addition of the 10 or so sources that the previous AfD dug up.

 * Keep. You only need one good reputable third-party source to establish notability, and this has the Seattle Times and Wired. That's plenty. Can always be expanded, sourced, yadda-yadda, but it's viable. 23skidoo (talk) 21:40, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Note: This is the 3rd nom but there was no first nom? Weird, unless it was bundled with something else? WikiScrubber (talk) 05:54, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep (without prejudice) but tag and/or expand (eg with screenshot, infobox). WikiScrubber (talk) 05:54, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
