Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ray William Johnson (2nd nomination)
The nomination gives no valid reason for deletion, there is no reference to any reason based in a policy or guideline that could justify deletion. The prior deletions are irrelevant - speedy deletion is about an assertion of importance, which is easily passed now, and the previous AfDs were done in the absence of the reliable sources that we know now have covered him in detail. |Notability on Wikipedia is not about "importance" - I don't think he is particularly important, but our opinions matter little in the face of the fact that he meets our |general notability criterion. If one does consider "importance" to be relevant, then I can point out that the Guinness World Records team obviously think he deserves a mention for being the most subscribed channel on Youtube.http://community.guinnessworldrecords.com/_Comedian-Ray-William-Johnson-sets-new-record-for-YouTube-subscribers/blog/4830881/7691.html I'd advise withdrawing this nomination now to avoid wasting more editors' time and averting drama
