Speedy delete as non-notable biography (CSD A7). Tagged. SYCTHOS^talk 01:44, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Userfy if necessary. SYCTHOS ^talk 01:44, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. All of us here wikipedians are just on the same level of journalism and notability. We have user pages for this kind of brag. BTW, there is no User:Tim Rogers , nowhere to userfy. Let him/her userfy xeself. mikka (t) 02:16, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete preferably speedy. A writer on the Internet and the article questions the information published by Rogers which raises concerns about verifiability. Capitalistroadster 02:21, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep He isn't just a "internet journalist" he writes for several magazines and is a fairly big name in the video game journalism industry. He's quite notable for being one of the fore-runners of the new games journalism movement. Kobyn 09:09, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep, notable journalist. Niche notability, exactly -- the sort of thing a process like AfD performs poorly on. Adrian Lamo · (talk) · (mail) · 09:30, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's one vote; SPOWJ was a comment :) Adrian Lamo · (talk) · (mail) · 09:32, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete but not speedy as notability is asserted. Just not, I'm afraid, terribly convincingly. I removed the speedy tag. Just zis Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] 10:27, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
