WP:V. There were two previous AfDs, consensus keep, both in 2007, both of which focused on questions of notability but not verifiability. I do not challenge the previous consensus on notability, my only reason for coming here is to discuss the verifiability concern.

Nothing I can find (but suggestions welcome) via Gnews/Gbooks (ignore the Books LLC wikimirror). Gweb, after excluding mirrors and references to other people seems to come down to a few links at thecountdownpage.com (see ELs) and ukgameshows.co.uk (e.g., http://www.ukgameshows.com/ukgs/Countdown) The former is a solo effort, the latter is a wiki-based system [1] without, I surmise, the sort of editorial oversight necessary for WP:RS.

But a couple reliable sources and I'd be happy to retract the nom, of course. j⚛e decker ^talk 04:58, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, I wouldn't have created this if I had known Wikipedia policy as well as I know it now. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:33, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. I just ran a search the Channel 4 website, and looked at the Countdown part of the same, and found nothing at all related either to this individual, or to the record that the article claims that he holds. -- role^player 16:01, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
