The page creator has submitted the page from draft and been declined due to lack of significant coverage, but has gone ahead and moved it into mainspace anyway. I can't find anything to demonstrate per WP:ENTERTAINER that this comedian has had the depth of coverage to warrant a Wikipedia page. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 08:14, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I found reviews of Robertson's show in The Sunday Times Magazine, The Age and The Plymouth Evening Herald, which I added to the article in a Reception section. I think that the reviews in Chortle and British Comedy Guide also look legitimate to me. — Toughpigs (talk) 16:36, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I have added further information and sources supporting point 2 of WP:ENTERTAINER showing the subject having performed at thousand-seater venues, prestigious comedy venues, and statistics on his internet following to demonstrate his 'large fan base and cult following' as required MogVult (talk) 18:02, 28 August 2020 (BST). Further information on television presenting and review by Dennis Publishing's Den Of Geek to underline WP:ENTERTAINER added MogVult (talk) 08:49, 1 September 2020 (BST). Experience as a video games consultant added to support WP:ENTERTAINER added MogVult (talk) 17:48, 1 September 2020 (BST)
