Deletion of JonTron (3rd nomination)

Comment: JonTron has sent out https://twitter.com/JonTronShow/status/451903946664476672 a tweet encouraging fans to voice support for the article. In the interest of sustaining a fair and balanced discussion, I feel it is important to remember that |Wikipedia is not a democracy, and that the discussion will be settled based on the merits of the arguments made, not by the number of users making those arguments

Comment: I'm sorry, but there just isn't significant coverage by |third party, reliable sources to the point to meet the . The sources presented so far, either aren't considered reliable, or do not discuss JonTron in detail. He needs to be the main subject of the sources, and discussed significantly. I just don't see it. Youtube channels and footage of him playing video games do not count towards notability on Wikpedia

Comment: While I still feel that the article probably satisfies 's requirements for individuals, I'm surprised this discussion is still open, as few support votes have come from users with a history of previous edits

Comment: The relevant guideline here is : Creative professionals are reliable if {{tq|"The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, ''or of multiple independent periodical articles'' or reviews."}} Has JonTron's collective YouTube work been the subject of multiple independent periodical articles? http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2014/02/video_time_to_learn_some_facts_that_link_pokemon_and_science Nintendolife, http://kotaku.com/5907309/kinect-star-wars-is-a-terrible-game-but-damn-if-it-isnt-fun/all Kotaku http://kotaku.com/5896732/laugh-through-16-minutes-of-this-bubsy-collection-review/all 2 http://kotaku.com/a-journey-through-bootleg-pokemon-games-1524340300 3 http://kotaku.com/fans-are-upset-over-youtube-duo-game-grumps-break-up-585225892/all 4 http://kotaku.com/5929308/why-final-fantasy-is-called-final-fantasy-and-other-ff-trivia/all 5, http://www.destructoid.com/nintendo-bred-a-new-flower-to-market-pikmin-on-gamecube--259357.phtml Destructoid http://www.destructoid.com/so-space-ace-for-the-snes-was-pretty-horrible-243538.phtml 2 http://www.destructoid.com/not-all-bootleg-pok-mon-games-are-terrible-270707.phtml 3 http://www.destructoid.com/jontron-died-and-on-the-third-day-rose-again-262420.phtml 4 http://www.destructoid.com/egoraptor-jontron-twiddle-their-sticks-play-some-games-231626.phtml 5

Comment: After weeding through the Reddit, youtube and similar worthless pseudo-sources, there simply is not sufficient coverage in independent reliable sources to write a reasonably detailed article about the subject. Yes, he clearly has some fans (is 16 !votes out of 22 a  record?), but that is not |notability

Comment: As many others have pointed out, this article has a lot of references. However, merely having references does not establish notability; the subject must meet the |general notability guideline. Looking through the list of references, most of them are primary sources -- links to YouTube videos/channels and JonTron's twitter -- that can be skipped over, as |notabilility is not established by primary sources. References from unverifiable sources (e.g. reddit discussions, personal blogs, etc.) can also be overlooked, as Wikipedia requires |reliable sources. References that are about Game Grumps as a whole and not JonTron specifically also do not sufficiently establish notability because |notability is not inherited. Now that we've narrowed down the source list to just the ones that might establish notability, let's see what's left

Comment: Concur with Sergecross73. Lack of reliable sources showing direct notability of JonTron. Notability is not |inherited from his shows, the fact that other Youtubers may or may not have articles is |irrelevant, and |popularity doesn't matter
