 * Weak Keep per the USA Networks bio . Suggests notability.  The Interior  (Talk) 23:39, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
 * That would be a primary source as USA is involved with the events. --Teancum (talk) 14:26, 28 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep I think WP:GNG is just met here, and his notibility is backed by this citation. – Phoenix B 1of3 (talk) 19:10, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. None of the references shows any notability whatsoever for this subject. Several sources do confirm that this person exists and is what the article says he is - OK, as far as it goes. But none of those sources exist, as far as I can tell, outside of MLG or USA Network. If there is media coverage of this individual, which we would need to confirm notability, I can't find it.

 * Keep Legitimate pro-gaming article --GrandPhilliesFan (talk) 11:58, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - Lack of reliable, third party sources. Article is a mess, and notability isn't established. Sergecross73   msg me   18:28, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Gamespot says "Major League Gaming, a professional gaming league that currently tours across the US, today announced it has signed a new group of cyber athletes to the largest contract in pro-gaming history." Gamespy and others consider this a professional league also.   They certainly make enough money.  A quarter million dollars each. .  And this person is certainly a major cyber athlete in this field.   D r e a m Focus  22:36, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
