  • Delete No sources or assertion of notabality--St.daniel Talk 22:03, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. If you want a catalog of Youtube users, go to Youtube. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 22:52, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Sorry I made such a fuss - I updated the page, and i think it is worth keeping now. -- 13 May 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Easier to remember (talk • contribs) — Easier to remember (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
    • Still needs to be brought up to standards if it's going to survive. What makes IanH notable? Can this be verified with reliable sources? So far, there are no positive answers to the questions, and being on Youtube doesn't make somebody notable. My cats are up there, drinking from a kitchen faucet - I love my girls, but they're not notable. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:27, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per Dennis The. (Not that this is a vote, just trying to build consensus here.) Is this really not speediable? - Aagtbdfoua 23:48, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Then why do we have an article about Smosh, they are also just a Youtube account. 13 May 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Easier to remember (talk • contribs) — Easier to remember (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
    • Because Smosh, as a whole, has been featured in Time, the Sacramento Bee, the NY Times, The Medium, and USA Today, as well on news shows for CBS, ABC, and BBC, and on NBC's Today Show. It's not just a username or user account on Youtube, it's the name of the pair. Ian Hecox's alternate user account is not notable, it's just his alternate account for stuff that he didn't think was good enough to put the Smosh stamp on - and if that's the case, no, it's not notable. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 03:42, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
    • To augment, it looks like Hecox and Padilla are both here as well. So yes, they are notable. I would still contend then that IanH is not, as a chaff account. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 03:45, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per Dennis. I had a username "92181459" once on a website somewhere - should that get its own wiki page too?DewiMorgan 18:15, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
