 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Article was previously deleted at AfD in June 2006 following a contested CSD, and recreated a week later. It has never had any references, and was tagged as being unsourced in March 2008. Since that time, it has been the subject of regular vandalism, including but not limited to blatant BLP violations and hoax-like material, and BLP violations have in some cases been left in the article for months. Google search showed mainly mirrors of the Wikipedia article. The only significant independent references I identified were the two articles in the external links section, in which he is quoted, but is not the subject of the article; therefore I do not believe he crosses the threshold for notability.

 * Delete No coverage in depth, as required by WP's notability policy, just some media sightings. As a result (but not in themselves reasons for deletion) the article is uninteresting and tells us almost nothing about the person.Steve Dufour (talk) 07:50, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Removed once before in 2006, and doesn't demonstrate any notability now. Mandsford 18:29, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Weak delete The Edge magazine listed this person as one of the gaming's top 50 journalists. He is occasionally quoted in reliable newspapers/magazines, but I can't find any substantial and independent coverage indicating notability to meet WP:PEOPLE guideline. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 14:12, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
