Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John Dowie (humourist)
Based on all the sources, in their totality, the subject without doubt an individual who is a forerunner and/or one of the first representatives of Alternative comedy which is a culturally significant and notable field. This gives the article a decently strong run at  #2. In addition to this, the subject weakly passes . Adding the two together, there is ''just'' enough for me to find that the subject is notable
