Non-notable gamer, reliable sources listed are about an event and do not mention this person. -- JamesMoose (talk) 17:54, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete - not notable recreated page. Flat Out let's discuss it 05:55, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Does not seem notable. Custom WP:VG/RS Google searches don't turn up anything that looks relevant. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 06:01, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete non-notable person. I was intending to A7 it, but the claim of world records it enough that I think we should let the AFD run its course. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 07:39, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Non-notable and no mention in sources. 7 09:37, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as non-notable person not passing WP:GNG with multiple reliable independent in-depth sources. The key point is "in-depth" rather than passing mentions in other content. Although I am familiar with their work and the importance in the niche field of video game speedrunning, there is no GNG-worthy coverage that I can find. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 13:54, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - As an avid follower of many speedrunners and GDQ, I can't find this speedrunner to be notable enough to have an article; one of the only ones that has received enough significant media coverage would be Cosmo Wright. ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 14:34, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment/suggestion: Perhaps a "list of notable speedrunners" (or livestreamers in general) should be made, similar to List of YouTube personalities. I'm not sure if there are any other speedrunner stubs/deleted articles that could be added to it, but it might be worth having as there are quite a few notable figures in the speedrunning community, and the community in general has been growing a lot in the past year or so.
