Fails WP:BIO There's very little on google about this guy. And there's a group of articles, each supporting each other--his company (I suspect he is his company) and the two games he's written in almost 20 years. None of which are particularly notable, but I will wait and see what reaction is here before proposing deletion of the others. They seem to be vanity or advertising articles.

• Delete , I won't say that there is a notability problem because without references I can not determine that. That means we have a verifiability problem Alf photoman 14:49, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. Trash is an award-winning RTS with an active user community and Chopper Commando remains one of the best and most important DOS games ever created. Sure, the article can be improved and I'll do so should the page be kept. IceCreamJonsey 03:07, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

• Comment. Improving the article before a decision is made would probably be a better way to go.--Wehwalt 04:42, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

• Merge with Trash (computer game), though that article needs to be cleaned out so it doesn't read like advertising. The game appears to be marginally notable [1] [2] [3], but I don't think we need a separate article on the developer.--Kubigula (talk) 23:07, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment For what it's worth, I think the company article should also be merged with Trash (I might use this phrase in future delete votes); I'm less certain about Chopper Commando.--Kubigula (talk) 23:12, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
• Merge with Inhuman Games. They're notable for developing a notable game, but having the articles spread apart doesn't do any good. I don't think it should be merged with the game itself though - that article is about the game, not the developers. Ultra-Loser ^{[ T ] [ C ]} 04:39, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
