[edit] David Gonterman

Non-notable. The only thing that he appears to be notable for is being a loser on the Internet. -- Bobdoe (Talk) 06:46, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete, not notable web cartoonist, vanity and/or self-promotion, someone should nerf the external links--nixie 07:40, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, not notable. Megan1967 08:34, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • DO NOT DELETE, most Internet users eventually hear about this guy, and he is therefore notable.
  • DO NOT DELETE, Gonterman is an interesting figure and the archetype/originator for several kinds of promenent comic/writing styles on the internet.

      • You're kidding me, right? I've read some of his works, and to be honest, there was little difference between them and all of the other bad self-insertion fanfiction out there. Please tell us why he, of all the lame fanfiction writers, deserves an article. -- Bobdoe (Talk) 18:14, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
        • I believe Gonterman deserves a place on Wikipedia as he is a particularly notable figure in the Internet domain of bad fanfiction writers. His works may not stand out, but his reaction towards others' opinions on him or his fanfiction does. I'm willing to expand the article or allow someone else to do so. -Grumpyhan 03:26, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, vaNNity. Radiant_* 14:13, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. As unintentionally hilarious as he is, he hasn't broken into mainstream internet unintentional hilarity. That said, he doesn't even have enough information on him to make him a notable article (as of yet, at any rate). PS: Bahahaha. RickGriffin 22:41, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Either expand or, if the article can't be expanded, delete. DS 15:26, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
