Weak Keep – some coverage found [1] and [2], though I note it's not terribly much. –MuZemike 17:33, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Those two links are perfect examples of what the GNG calls trivial mention. How are we supposed to write a reliable article if we have close to zero information on him? Not to mention that they are both blog posts. Pax:Vobiscum (talk) 23:23, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to IGN and merge whatever's verifiable - or simply delete. Marasmusine (talk) 15:56, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fine with a smerge or redirect. –MuZemike 02:38, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to IGN. No real coverage, but he is as notable as average reviewers get. Some information is more or less useful, so WP:USEFUL aside, it can live in IGN with some possibly primary sourcing.— Hellknowz ▎talk 19:32, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to IGN - To merge this one editor would end up requiring a paragraph on the staff at IGN. Not a big deal, but it just doesn't seem necessary. There's not much in the way of notability here, so aside from making the entire staff a section of the IGN article there's no need for a merge. --Teancum (talk) 14:26, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
