[edit] Verifiability

Talk:Mike Harrington This page is not wholy true, by any means, but it is just a joke of a teenager and I can know that it can be edited to fit the neccesary guidelines for the site. It's not worth the trouble to remove, and would mean a lot to Mike if it was allowed to stay up under the conditions that it continues to be a non-derogatory page, towards anyone.

[edit] Well....

Doesn anyone know where Mr. Harrington is now? Still sailing, or what? -SwiftGeneration 19:33, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Removed this reference, [1]. which was against Harrington's round-the-world trip, as it does not mention that at all. It's just a brief review of Half Life 2. Rojomoke 23:17, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mike is notable

I added a reference to Mike's gamasutra profile as that is the only piece of information I can link to about him personally. Mike co-founded the company that produced half-life -- a game that took down some major cash and some major awards. If that isn't notable, I don't know what is. --GonzosTorment 02:06, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Have you read WP:NOTE, where it says "A topic is presumed to be notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject," or Wikipedia:Notability (people) where it says "A person is presumed to be notable enough for a standalone article if they have received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject"? The fact that he is acknowledged in a database to be the founder of a company that made a lot of money, or the creator of a product that won a lot of awards, is not a substitute for notability as defined there, is it?
