[edit] Simon Deering

Big Brother housemate, per precident.-- 9cds^(talk) 00:42, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per precedent. Nonnotable housemate - Peripitus (Talk) 01:42, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. Rockpocket 03:30, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep. He's also a TV host (yes, it's a pretty minor show, but nonetheless it shows a career in the public eye after Big Brother). Fipe 03:34, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Given that he has had a television career in Australia apart from Big Brother. Capitalistroadster 03:55, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. I personally don't have any affection for this person or the show, but he was a high-profile Big Brother contestant, who then went straight into hosting a new nightly phone-in interactive television game show, which was apparently created specifically for him, and which lasted many months. The show might be minor but was also somewhat innovative. Asa01 05:18, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. Appalling as well as somewhat innovative, but I still think that his having a public career after BB merits an article. It turns him into a personality of sorts. Fipe 06:03, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per TV career. Barrylb 16:07, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Australia-related deletions. -- Capitalistroadster 03:55, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep, he appears to be at least marginally notable outside Big Brother. --Coredesat 06:10, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete as the other achievements mentioned are not very notable. -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 06:12, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep per notability, or failing that, Merge and Redirect People will inevitably search for the name. Ansell 06:32, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep. While the other contestants can be safely deleted, his hosting duties probably make him notable enough for inclusion. --Roisterer 12:34, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and Redirect nn and this is the best solution. --Wisden17 13:20, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep He is still notable--Childzy ^{(Talk|Contribs)} 19:46, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable outside of being a BB contestant. -- Chuq 23:07, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per others. Sophy's Duckling 23:23, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep he has become very well known as the architypal Z-grade celebrity Cyclone49 05:01, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
• reluctant keep, according to the Daily Telegraph, 7 June 2006, the Up Late Game Show will be back for a second season in August. Unfortunately I think co-writing and hosting 2 seasons of a (dreadful) nationally telecast TV show justifies an article. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 14:56, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per notability in and out of show. Please no more copy/paste nominations (unless the articles are almost identical). Each person is different. In this case, his involvement with The Uplate Game Show is unique to him. So, why is the nomination reason *exactly* the same here, as in three other places. --Rob 06:22, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
• Comment The precedent referenced in the nomination has been challenged by multiple users and as such is not strong enough to be used as the only nomination condition. Ansell 06:44, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

  Would you like to link to the places it was challenged? -- 9cds^(talk) 09:36, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

  This page is a reference in itself. If the precedent were strong then it would be strong enough to have everyone voting delete, instead only the first few people to come across this page voted that way, since then people have voted to keep the information in some way or another. Ansell 10:03, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

  That's because it says "if they aren't notible outside the house", people voting keep feel he is. -- 9cds^(talk) 10:11, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

  You can't decide that type of notability without going through this process for each one.Ansell 23:19, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

• Keep, as per above. Known outside of the house and show. Grey Shadow 21:21, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep -- I@n ≡ talk 03:56, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - not notable as Hotdogs from BB, notable as Hotdogs from BB and the host of The Uplate Game Show. Jxan3000 05:58, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
