Dubious biography of a living person. None of the strong statements in the article is backed by sources. Creator Filmfetalle is a single-purpose account, likely in a conflict of interest. bender235 (talk) 17:48, 15 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as WP:VANISPAM. The over the top claims about Oprah and White House and Steven Jobs etc.. can be sourced to his own website.[1] They don't check out, or can't be verified. There is some kernel of truth in that he is a game developer, but the sourcing is weak - a couple local profiles (local TV news and Kent State) that doesn't meet minimum notability guidelines. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 05:11, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as not passing WP:GNG with in-depth coverage in multiple reliable independent sources, such as WP:VG/RS. Written like a promotional resume with tons of peacocking and unsupported over the top claims. The TV interview is good, but nothing else passes the bar. TECHudson looks like a minor station for some related/marketing/tech business? The interview would be a good source for material, but doesn't quality for GNG as being primary. Overall, a WP:ONEEVENT case. Everything else is about the game, not the developer. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 18:51, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
