Talk:Paul Barnett (video game designer)

message: Wikipedia articles must be based on reliable sources to verify any claims of notability. Even though the lack of third-party sources in an article is not grounds for deletion in itself, an article with absolutely no sources (or only external links to unreliable ones, or self-published sources) suggests to some editors that multiple independent reliable sources may not, in fact, exist.
Although I am considering tagging this article for deletion according to the Deletion policy, I am nonetheless willing to assist User:, and other recent contributors to this article, to make some constructive improvements to it … I do not have time to examine this article in depth at the moment, and it may improve over time, in which case this warning was premature.
Please respond on this Discussion page, instead of on my Talk page, in order to avoid fragmenting the conversation.
To better understand why I have used this template, please read Flag templates for deletion warnings … I apologize if some of the expressed possible concerns may not be appropriate in this case. :Category:Flagged articles
* As article has survived 2 AFDs, I have removed it from the flagged article indexing by adding a colon to the category template.  – S. Rich (talk) 17:29, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Still not notable. Time surely invalidates the previous arguments in that his notability was temporary

Re-raising the issue of notability. I doubt this guy is any more notable than many other game designers and his notability was temporary with the Warhammer game. He's disappeared since then.
He should have been deleted in the past - saved by fan boys.

Under what grounds are we questioning this individual's notability?  According to the guidelines listed & thoroughly discussed here, I can find no reason why Mr. Barnett is not notable enough for Wikipedia.  Perhaps I'm missing the point, but it appears as though Mr. Barnett's employer EA Mythic is making a new game, which is highly notable on its own.  He is involved in the development process of a notable project, yet that is not enough to warrant notability for himself?

message: This article requires considerable cleanup:
* Notability is limited. It should not be temporary. 
* References aren't good. 
** They need to be actually verifying facts, 1-3 just game pages
** Most aren't up to required standard.
** Some are broken  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.43.120.163 (talk) 23:31, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
