Similar article at Draft: Daniel Hardcastle on the same subject recently rejected. Pages Dan Hardcastle and Daniel Hardcastle previously deleted due to lack of notability, the latter being indefinitely protected. There’s just not enough content to justify an article.

There is a rather large body of evidence for a content creator, who has in excess of 2.6 million YouTube subcribers on his primary channel alone, a published book and a number of other works that have been outlined in this source.

Surely there must be precedents set by the likes of Jacksepticeye that such figures are of public interest.

Any pointers on how this can be supported with additional content to demonstrate its relevance? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MrPaperwings (talk • contribs) 20:02, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Believe me if anything I’d be biased towards keeping the article as I’m a fan of Dan. However the largest problem for him continues to be third-party reporting. There’s just not enough of it (though maybe that’ll change when his book comes out, as it hasn’t been published yet). In a case like Jacksepticeye, as you can see by searching Google news for his name you get numerous reports from sources like Polygon, Independent, BBC about his recent split. Searching for Dan doesn’t have nearly as much coverage, with only passing mentions in good sources and only a few less-decent sources with full articles about him. The problem now is the same it was 3 years ago; despite his following he just doesn’t have enough external coverage. Koldcuts (talk) 22:29, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete and salt per Articles for deletion/Daniel Hardcastle and multiple recreations under other titles. "Surely there must be precedents set by the likes of Jacksepticeye that such figures are of public interest." Look at the history of George Miller (entertainer), a more popular YouTuber which was deleted and salted until he charted on Billboard. Morgan Ginsberg (talk) 05:35, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
