[edit] Jochen Hippel

Non notable, gateway to a web of vanity articles Tony Bruguier 03:20, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

• Weak keep and expand, as he seems to have created music for a few notable video games [1] --TBC^{??? ??? ???} 03:45, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete. Doesn't satisfy criteria for me yet, but sounds as if there's a possibility he might. Fagstein 04:51, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - verifiable, potentially useful. For great justice. 07:17, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Comment pretty borderline on notability, certainly the stuff claiming he played a prominent role in computer music during the 16-bit era seems POV if the list from the link at the bottom is complete, as it only lists a dozen games, none of them major titles even in their time that I know of. -- Sfnhltb 07:27, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - Jochen Hippel (AKA Mad Max) was a pioneer of chiptunes on the Atari ST demoscene and contributed some major innovations with using the YM2149 sound chip Ae-a 14:58, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Fagstein. I owned my Atari ST through to 1996, and I never heard of this fellow, the games for which he worked, or "chiptunes." RGTraynor 15:18, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per nom. -- P199 16:45, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete, doesn't hit WP:BIO for me. Maybe a mention at one of Ae-a's articles. Deizio 16:51, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Notable for music in the demoscene. ⇒ SWATJester ^Ready Aim _Fire! 19:03, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete with possible mention elsewhere per Deiz. JoshuaZ 22:38, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Deiz. --Khoikhoi 22:58, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep Should be expanded. Fishhead64 05:17, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete vanity. Jonas Silk 21:40, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - per Ae-a. This guy is one of the most represented artists at http://kohina.com/playlist.html Gruntbuggly 18:55, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
