Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brian Crecente (3rd nomination)
Find no reason under -REASON and the guidelines of  not to have this article. Kotaku is notable and is referenced often, he was editor-in-chief of a notable website which is consistently highly ranked. Under #3 of , "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." Editor-in-chief is a major role. Kotaku falls under the scope of a work and it in often cited and commented about. I don't see this article as shameless self-promotion, while it may not be a great article it still merits inclusion. Msnicki, the lack of great sources in the article is not a reason for deletion, the requirement is verification and as a former chief editor it surely these would be acceptable mentions? http://www.industrygamers.com/news/brian-crecente-unplugged/ http://gamepolitics.com/2012/01/03/brian-crecente-leaves-kotaku-stephen-totilo-takes-over http://www.vg247.com/2012/01/03/brian-crecente-quits-kotaku/ E3 coverage aside, he seems to be regarded as an important figure in gaming journalism
