[edit] Keith Harrison

This biography of a cameraman has been previously been speedily deleted five times (db-bio), but has been created by 3 users (who aren't single purpose accounts) and 1 IP in its entire history. I'm a little hesitant to speedily delete it a sixth time AND protect it from recreation without community consensus so I've sent this to WP:AFD for a 2nd opinion on whether it may or may not meet Wikipedia:Notability (people) with more research. --  Netsnipe  ►  08:43, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete - CSD G4. MER-C 08:49, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
• Apparently the vidcast he works for (Diggnation) is notable. Let's just merge and redirect to avoid recreation as a separate article. I suspect all creators are a fan of the vidcast and told eachother to recreate the article. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:15, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to Revision3 Corporation. It probably keeps getting recreated because there was a bold redlink for him in that article. Recury 14:35, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete is also OK with me if it is protected from recreation. Recury 16:35, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete Most of the info came from the revision3 website almost verbatim (copyvio?) However, I'm sure if it is deleted, it will re-appear. JungleCat talk/contrib 15:23, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:BIO. Diggnation is notable; its director/cameraman is not.--Isotope23 16:10, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Have you watched any of the Diggnation episodes? ... please do, and you will note that Keith Harrison is specifically called out by the co-hosts for topic discussions in many of the episodes. And he has physically appeared in at least a dozen of the episodes. He is also not only the cameraman, but does all the editting of the Diggnation vidcast. Without him, there wouldn't be a Diggnation vidcast. Treelovinhippie 06:28, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
• Smerge into the Revision3 article, and I'm not 100% sure about all the other people listed there. Some of them are notable outside the vidcast, but not all. --Dhartung | Talk 21:51, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
