Somehow this article has survived six years without anyone providing any evidence of the guy's notability. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:45, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment: Trust me, it is not the only one. And this one seems to have much better potential than many others out there. Still, it needs better referencing. -- Loukinho (talk) 00:12, 21 June 2012 (UTC).
 * Delete: couldn't find enough independent coverage to satisfy either WP:BIO or WP:GNG--William Thweatt TalkContribs 01:14, 21 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete: So this is Some Guy who wrote a couple computer demos heard of by no one outside of computer demo circles? Fails the GNG by leaps and bounds.   Ravenswing   05:23, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

 * I think he contributed more than enough to the progress in video game industry to have a wiki page. Also, how can I put the above text on his wiki? I found it on mobygames... don't want to just copy paste like I did here. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marcellus2070 (talk • contribs) 13:45, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * You shouldn't copy and paste it here either, because it is copyrighted material, meaning that it is unlawful to reproduce it without the consent of the copyright holder. Even if you were to rewrite this in your own words it would not be suitable for the article, because our content is based on what independent sources say, not the article subjects themselves or their employers.

Thanks - I was trying to do what you did - using the wiki edit tool can be challenging at times for someone just starting to edit a page or two... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.206.57.114 (talk) 23:31, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - I can't find anything that shows that he would pass the GNG, in the article currently or elsewhere. No coverage in reliable, third party sources. Sergecross73   msg me   20:13, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
