The result was delete. Notability is demonstrated by providing sources and assertions of being well known are only valid if the sources are there to back the assertion up, Spartaz Humbug! 06:15, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently non-notable author/editor, no awards list, unreferenced blp. I can't find significant coverage via google news or books, although there is some passing mention. --Nuujinn (talk) 19:36, 26 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. I think he's written enough notable audio plays to pass for notability. (Okay, there isn't a specific notability criteria like this for writers, but if actors can qualify for notability through significant notable appearances in works, it's common sense to do for the for the writers.) Should this not be enough, I suggest a merge to Big Finish Productions where he seems to have done most of his work. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 17:10, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or Merge per Chris' suggestion. The sources don't seem to be out there - I am completely willing to reconsider my !vote if sourcing can be found and added, please let me know!--Milowent • talkblp-r 17:54, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment, the merge suggestion seems a good one, then if the subject rises to meet notability requirements it can be broken out as a separate article, and in the mean time we'll have a redirect in place. --Nuujinn (talk) 18:07, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

- Delete for apparent lack of sources on the person. The plays and the production company do not assert that much importance beyond the Doctor Who sphere either. --Tikiwont (talk) 09:05, 11 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
