  • Delete. A self-employed person who I am sure does a good job, but all references are the subject's creations. Sjakkalle (Check!) 15:12, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. Well written article, mentioned on BBC, and Wired. 68.94.20.199 (talk) 23:39, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
    • You have a point there, and I retract my comment that all the references were the subjects creations. (Clearly I didn't read through the references thoroughly enough.) Still, I am not entirely sure if those brief mentions in a BBC program qualify for notability. Then again, I'm not entirely sure that it doesn't. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:06, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

  • Weak delete. The only one of the sources that seems to meet the reliable sources guideline is the short BBC piece; I'd really like to see at least one other significant source. The Wired ref seems kind of trivial to me, and doesn't really discuss him in a way that would verify much in the article. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 19:40, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. Short article, but seems to tick enough boxes to swing my vote. Just passes notability thanks to the BBC work and interview. 80.177.11.120 (talk) 03:21, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
    • Comment. Not to affect my vote, but just noticed from checking his animation mix that I have seen his gifs used as avatars in countless forums. Means nothing I know, but interesting to finally find out where they came from...80.177.11.120 (talk) 03:21, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
