Deletion of Simon Cooke

Comment: This is a vanity page  masking as a biography of a 'video game developer, writer and musician', which does not meet  for creative works and research would not fall under  because the work is not widely cited.  Generally...there are sites better dedicated to listing credits on video games and simply working on one, or for a specific company is not notable in itself.  The same could be said for being part of a demoscene, publishing fanzines or simply running a campaign for proposed hardware drop-ins that never made it to market.  The journalism credits include running fanzines, winning a competition and writing web articles - these are not notable in themselves, nor are widely cited.  The filmmaking credits are not notable - one of the two films links to the subjects own site and the other, a vimeo upload.  Neither film has any notoriety and actually appear to be amateur level work that is not at all well known.  The video game section lists places of employment - simply working for companies is not a notable thing, it's best left to LinkedIn to record and again, game credits MobyGames.  The research noted - are ultimately links citing two separate 'blog' posts, this not widely cited and are not notable or otherwise scholarly.  Had they been scholarly, they would quality under .  The claim to be a musician may be valid but potentially from nothing than the standpoint of a pastime - the article does not speak to this topic nor underlines any notoriety in this field.  The screenwriting credit links to the subjects own blog post mentioning the upload of a screenplay to a website (more or less entering a competition) and being the highest rated entry for the month of February 2008, but beyond that there is no mention of the screenplay anywhere on the internet, not even on the website it was uploaded to - it lacks any notoriety and labeling it as 'unproduced' does not mean it had that kind of credibility or potential, it's a little misleading actually (being a wannabee is not a notable thing).  The most relevant item in this article is a journalism credit that appears to be for a gaming magazine for a short period of time, however this does not hold up against peer work - people with a notoriety from similar work in larger publications (such as Simon Goodwin) do not have Wikipedia articles, nor probably would.  In light of the fact that the creator of and a major contributor of this article appears to be the subject (see talk pages), this appears to be a vanity page.  The subject clearly has done many great things, both professionally and hobby-wise so I do not wish to discredit, but these are simply not at a level notability or notoriety to warrant a biographical article on Wikipedia, nor are they Encyclopedic in nature.  I would suggest people voting for/against deletion consider whether this article would exist, had the subject not personally stubbed it out
