Thom Huge

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This guy's only role was voicing Jon and a few other characters in Garfield and Friends. While that alone might make him notable, there is absolutely no other info out there about him; no date of birth, no biographical info, et cetera; therefore, I think he fails notability guidelines.

 * Redirect to Garfield & Friends since it's his only role.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 23:41, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep There actually is some information about him, if you dig for it. This site has no less than three (!) interviews with Huge. I started listening to the first one, and it provides enough biographical material to write several interesting paragraphs. All but the last two articles here mention him, and it seems like he also wrote a Garfield book. He probably doesn't strictly pass WP:BIO, but I still think there's enough information to justify an independent article. Zagalejo^^^ 01:06, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect as above as I'm not sure the interviews count as 3rd party sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jasynnash2 (talk • contribs)
 * Well, wouldn't any information about Huge have to come from interviews? It's not like he's had a historian following him around, taking notes while hiding under tables. ;) In truth, I'm not really opposed to making this a redirect for the time being. I'd just like to understand your argument. Zagalejo^^^ 17:21, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
 * My "argument" is that interviews with the subject of an article are primary sources and not 3rd party sources (or at least that is my understanding). I could of course be wrong. Jasynnash2 (talk) 09:20, 28 May 2008 (UTC)


 * If no more information can be found about him, redirect per nom. Anthony Rupert (talk) 14:45, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment - it is my belief that the interviewer is a valid source of information because he is a professional DJ in the broadcast field. While not as well known as DJ such as Howard Stern or Rick Dees, he would still qualify. However more sources about Mr Huge would be needed, possibly searching under industry trade mags as he appears to be a notable producer and professional in the broadcast field as well. --Jeremy ( Blah blah... ) 23:44, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
