His site is one of the longest-running review sites on the Internet, and he gets 2500-3000 reader comments (25,000-30,000 clickthroughs) per day.

KEEP. Mark Prindle is one of the most revered and brilliant music reviewers today, plus his sheer originality should certainly grant him a wikipedia page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.22.17.165 (talk) 18:51, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] This AfD was linked from a 4chan post?

If so, cool. To be honest after some of the anon-IPs actually provided sources of a sort. I'm kind of thinking, strangely, that this article should not have been deleted and that he is in fact truly notable.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 16:38, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
