The following is an archived debate of the deletion review of the page above. Please do not modify it.
Stuart Ashen (talk|edit|history|logs|links|watch) (XfD|restore)

This article has been created/deleted a number of times since 2008 with the last deletion in Feb 2011. I feel that this is a good time to reactivate this article, as the subject has recently become very relevant. I cite: Ashens and The Quest For The Gamechild. I created the previously noted page, and feel that this is just one of the many reasons that Stuart Ashen is relevant for inclusion on Wikipedia. Furthermore, Stuart's YouTube channel has (at time of this initial post) 398,076 subscribers, and 79,704,778 channel views. I feel this is well known enough for inclusion on wikipedia, based on other, less subscribed and viewed YouTubers.

  • Hi, could you list reliable sources which could be used for the article? In general we need reliable, third-party, independent sources per WP:N before we can have an article.Hobit (talk) 12:24, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Given the deletion history of the article I think a solid, sourced userspace draft would be the way to go with this. Stifle (talk) 16:04, 10 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse deletion, inherently faulty reasoning that someone deemed not-notable for making silly YouTube videos can somehow become notable for making another silly Youtube video. No indication of any significant new notability, etc. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 03:05, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
