  • Strong Delete Not notable --BigFishy 22:38, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Naconkantari 22:56, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - no assertion of importance - just another DJ - Peripitus (Talk) 00:27, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Master Fatman is already well covered on the Danish Wikipedia as he should be. He is locally notable here in Denmark, doesn't mean he belongs on the English Wikipedia. MartinDK 01:10, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep taking Martin's word for it that he's notable in Denmark- this is the Wikipedia in the English language, not just a Wikipedia for subjects in the English-speaking world. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 01:30, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, per CanadianCaesar. Tonywalton  | Talk 12:32, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per CanadianCaesar. Systematic bias. Computerjoe's talk 13:52, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached

  • Delete, assertions of notability are weak and failure of WP:V. International subjects can have articles on en. as long as their articles assert and verify their notability, same as topics from the English speaking world. Deizio talk 15:08, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, fails WP:RS and WP:V. Please note that the entry on the Danish WP suffers from the same problems, so please reconsider the votes to keep, as there is no evidence yet to back up the assertion that he's "notable in Denmark". - Aagtbdfoua 17:27, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep, per sources found by Prolog. - Aagtbdfoua 20:18, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete, WP:NN, I lived in Denmark for 8 years and I've never heard of him. --911wasaninsidejob 17:43, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
    • This is the user's third edit, and he has since been indef blocked for that questionable choice of a username. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 09:23, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Director/producer of a notable film should be notable himself. Just because you have never heard of him does not make him not notable. Ccscott 18:00, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep as above. Also, interviewed on Finland's biggest film webzine and performed twice at the Danish Melodi Grand Prix. Prolog 18:41, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. I am Danish and have heard of him and seen him on TV many times. He is better known as "Master Fatman" and well covered in Danish mainstream media. Examples from large Danish newspapers: Berlingske Tidende[1] and Politiken[2]. 234 search hits on the website of Danmarks Radio and 557 (includes forums) on the other large Danish TV station: TV 2 (Denmark). (He has hosted programs on DR and participated in the TV2 show Vild med dans) PrimeHunter 21:09, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep he may not be notable in English speaking areas, but this in no way disqualifies this article from existing in the English language Wikipedia. Also, agreeing with above notions of notabilty in Denmark. Fatlenin 22:01, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
