This page is written terribly. Almost the entire page has been copied from NDCQ.com, there are no proper references, and there doesn't seem to be anyone working to improve the quality of this page. Therefore this page should be deleted, or at the very least reduced to a stub. Rudiculous (talk) 19:02, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Poor writing is not good rationale for deletion, but lack of notability is. As far as I can tell, his only clami to notability is being somehow involved in the publicity of a new game,  but the only sources I can find are about the game, rather than him.

 * Keep - I think that this article should be reduced to a stub, since it's clear it's not properly written. The subject of the article, though, is quite notable. He used to host a TV show on the Discovery channel.188.25.42.222 (talk) 21:29, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Just for clarification; Machowicz hosted two shows. Future Weapons (now cancelled) and Deadliest Warrior (co-hosted third season; now cancelled). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rudiculous (talk • contribs) 23:11, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete simply not sufficiently notable. Buckshot06 (talk) 05:59, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep agree with nominator about the poor writing, but anyway the subject seems to pass WP:ENT. Cavarrone (talk) 11:09, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Seems the nominator brought this one here because it was poorly written, had poor references, had not been as actively edited as he might prefer, and should perhaps then be reduced to a stub. I agree it's in a poor state, but we do not delete what can be fixed.  In looking at the numerous available sources, many in depth, we see that this fellow has been written of many times over a many years period.  That leads me to see that WP:GNG is met.  While appreciating the nominator's concerns, we do not delete notable topics simply because the article needs work.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 13:17, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
