[edit] Nate Stein

Article about a person who writes about wrestling on the Internet, which really isn't enough to make a person notable. I've come upon the article by reverting edits by sockpuppets of an indef blocked user a couple of times, but that doesn't change the notability either way. - Bobet 16:37, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

• Reluctant Keep Could go either way, but I think he just merits an article. -- P.B. Pilhet / Talk 16:44, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Subject does not meet WP:BIO.
• Keep I would contend that the subject does meet WP:BIO, he's a published writer and commentator, whose work is widely viewed. He owns the "professor test" easily. --Matthew 01:38, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
  • That's all well and good, but how does an Internet columnist count as a published writer? Anyone can write on the Internet, much like you did when posting that comment. And since his main venue of writing is the Internet, you would at least expect him to show up on search engines, but i get just over 500 hits on google, of which 200 are unique and most aren't about him (Google:Nate-Stein), which shows that not only is he not well-known, but his writings aren't spread far either. - Bobet 09:25, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
