Like the other Internet Icon contestants (Lana McKissack and The Fu Music), they do not pass the WP:GNG. The references are to YouTube, an unreliable source, and 4 of the external links are inappropriate due to WP:ELNO. Zappa O Mati 00:01, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Internet Icon. The show itself seems to be relatively notable, but the Brothers Riedell do not seem to be exceptionally notable outside of it. The numbers for their followers and views aren't really that impressive when you compare them to some of the more well-known YouTubers. Hannah Minx has almost half a million followers and over a hundred million views. Harry Partridge has over 300,000 followers and 80 million plus views. The reason I mention this is because you can't say that their following is so large that it would pass criteria 2 of WP:ENTERTAINER. Other than one source, I couldn't find coverage of these two in any independent and reliable source that specifically focused on them and not on the show.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 08:24, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per above, as with the recently redirected Lana McKissack. No significant coverage found in reliable sources; does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:ENT. Gongshow ^Talk 23:54, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
