Non-notable indvidual, and a poorly written and sourced article. Mayor mike haggar (talk) 8 Aug, 11.17

  • Note: This debate has been added to the list of video game deletions. Marasmusine 11:31, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep I believe this to be a bad faith nomination. There appears to be some sort of battle involving three articles about video game journalists ( Paul Rose (journalist), Stuart Campbell (video game journalist) and Dave Perry) The user account that nominated this article also created the AFD page for Stuart Campbell (although the AFD notice was put on the page by an anon IP (81.178.249.75)). Something doesn't smell right about a three day old account having a hand in the AFD of three people in the same profession. - X201 11:49, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - he's notable. 'Poorly written' isn't a justification for deletion. Darksun 12:09, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - I think this adequately establishes notability, so it just needs to be heavily cleaned up. — brighterorange (talk) 13:26, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep notability is sufficiently established in the article. -- MisterHand (Talk to the Hand|Contribs) 14:16, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep and cleanup per above, clearly notable. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 15:34, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
