Aside from this being a self-published article, this guy's sole claim to fame is being a brony on the internet, something that hardly makes him unique or interesting. Jtrainor (talk) 08:10, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I don't think this is self-published. Everymorning is the original author, I know I cleaned up from that. I have no added comment at this time about keep/delete but calling this "self-published" is not true at all. --Masem (t) 14:17, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment from article creator I did in fact create this article. I am not Dusty Rhoades and I have never even met him, so, as Masem pointed about above, it is totally incorrect to call this article "self-published", nor are any of its sources self-published.

Delete this proposal for a non-notable brony; otherwise way too many people would qualify. But if everyone's notable, then no one's notable. -The Gnome (talk) 16:25, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete mention in articles is not the same as substantial coverage.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:58, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I have no interest or real knowledge in this subject area, but for those who do, this subject does gets some pretty high level coverage - dedicated coverage from Entertainment Weekly is nothing to scoff at. I think it deserves a bit more effort than these lazy WP:ITSNOTNOTABLE responses above. Sergecross73 msg me 13:53, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
