Morsch's article was deleted, so should this one. Contents should be moved into Fritz (chess), if at all. Xiner 21:29, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - A quick Google search found several press mentions ([1], [2], [3]) so he seems somewhat notable as the Deep Fritz programmer. The article needs some serious expansion though. Jayden54 22:07, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above. Sharkface217 22:15, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Page created by a single page contributor from an anonymous IP address. Highly dubious. DrKiernan 09:41, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merge the single line of his activities into ChessBase & Fritz (chess). It is the programs that are notable and unless separate notability can be established for the programmer (i.e. series of notable programs, public commentary of his role and development of the field), then not warrenting own article).

Keep Davidruben makes a good argument. However, aside from the mentions cited above, he appears to be the subject of several articles written in German.[4] [5] I know this is the English Wikipedia, but I don't believe foreign language sources are excluded. Seems to me that he meets the guidelines for inclusion. -Kubigula (talk) 05:00, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I believe he meets notability guidelines per Kubigula and Jayden54. Also, at the time this article was written IP users could start articles [6].--Dakota 05:23, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
