[edit] Steve Glicker

Initially listed as a copy vio, but according to the talk page, the person concerned agrees to it being here. However, this person is not very notable. Kurando 12:17, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, yuck! Flowerparty 16:46, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Alexa for his website = 397,775. May be a very successful programmer/entrepreneur (although, hmm, why no NAMES for his various "multi-million dollar" accomplishments?), but unless that has given him fame, which it apparently hasn't (35 Google hits, I don't think it much matters.

• Keep He is notable in the gaming world for his work, as well as notable for his podcast which is regularly one of the highest (if not the highest) ranked gaming podcast. The article would need some work, of course, and I would be willing to do this. There are no names for his multi-million dollar accomplishments because of agreements he signed when selling his company. Also, Steve regularly releases information on his site, especially concerning the game Spore, well before most, if not all other news sources get the information. syphonbyte
• Keep If you search for his radio show Gaming Steve on Google you end up with about 3600 hits which is what his "claim to fame" would be. FYI, I heard about his site through a friend who heard about him through work in a small town up in Canada. So he is definately generating a following. Sure the entry needs to be cleaned up but as someone who hopped on wiki to learn more about him, I can attest that I was personally interested in learning about him... so it's not just vanity thing going on.

I just had an after thought. It might be appropriate to rename the article "Gaming Steve" which would outline his show. Part of the entry would include his bio info as contained on this page. Granite T. Rock 00:57, July 19, 2005 (UTC)

• Comment: That's a good idea. The article already contains more information on the show than Steve himself. syphonbyte

• Keep - His podcast is one of the highest rated gaming podcasts, so I think he is definetly notible. That fact should be added to the article though. Also, it does need a little bit of cleanup, but that could definetly be done Spizzma 22:20, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
