Tim and Chris Stamper

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article appears to have been rescued from a previous AfD in 2007. I'm not sure exactly what to do with this article, but as a BLP (albeit for two people) it needs to be sourced. There are sources out there that mention them, but a lot of them seem to be fansites or articles where the main focus is on Rare (eg: The Independent). From my understanding of the pair, going from their days as hardware arcade developers, though to Ultimate, then Rare, they seem to have deliberately avoided any sense of notability in preference to just "getting on with the job" and producing quality products, so I think they qualify as "low profile individuals" mentioned in WP:BIO1E. The article could be redirected to Rare Ltd, their best known company, but I'm not sure anyone is going to type in "Tim and Chris Stamper" into a search. Either one of them I could argue a redirect, but not both. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  14:09, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Rare Ltd. Additionally, create "Tim Stamper" and "Chris Stamper" redirects to the same target, as they are probably more likely search terms. Sergecross73   msg me  13:37, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect I see Rare Ltd as a reasonable target.--69.157.253.160 (talk) 22:26, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
