Richard Gray[edit]

NN 'level designer', in one game. Fails WP:BIO Elar a girl^Talk|Count 22:37, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Notable level designer, co-founded Ritual Entertainment. If you want to add sources, a Google for levelord interviews brings up quite a few. - Hahnch e n 00:40, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

All I see is blogs, non-notable gaming sites, and the like. I'm sorry, none of this appears to meet WP:BIO.--Elar a girl^Talk|Count 07:46, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as per Hahnchen. Combination 01:38, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Are you going to fix the article? As it stands, it's unsourced. --Elar a girl^Talk|Count 03:10, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- No I am not. - Hahnch e n 04:44, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Hangchen. Levelord is notable and has been quoted in game industry publications. That said, I don't have the sources on hand. --Alan Au 07:31, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In other words... someone's 'heard of him' but there's no verifiable notability? dryly Why am I not suprised? --Elar a girl^Talk|Count 07:45, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, did you look at my comment, did you look the link? Why am I not surprised? - Hahnch e n 15:46, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In the google results, there were links to Gamespy, IGN, Firing Squad. You're talking about a guy who made his fame in computer games with Duke Nukem 3D, which was years ago, you might have to look deeper. For example, an article retrieved from archive.org from GamaSutra. - Hahnch e n 15:57, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
