I poured through google results, but he doesn't seem to be notable. Yes, he designed some of the artwork for Babylon 5 and four computer games, but he doesn't seem to have ever received independent coverage from reliable sources. Someguy1221 (talk) 06:45, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. No sources or citations. -Axmann8 (Talk)
- Possible Copyright Violation - Significant amount of text copied from here and here. Though the second site is under the GNU license, the first one isn't. Antivenin 13:02, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The article claims to be written by his widow (also with an article) - I'm not sure if this is documented. But if she was the author of the other sites and added it here, it should be ok I suppose. Johnbod (talk) 19:00, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak Keep Seems just about notable for comics, games etc. Curse Of Peter Ledger would surely not survive Afd though. Johnbod (talk) 19:00, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I feel this is a Keep article, but it needs more references as the Possible Copyright Violation raised by Antivenin is an issue. I think that Peter Ledger is notable for his work, but you have to remember he did his work before the Internet came into its own so references are more likely to be in newspapers and magazines, esp. fan magazines. The article also needs a bit more work and clean up. --Artypants, Babble 14:47, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. The Australian comic book awards are named after Ledger. You can't really get more notable within your own field, can you? Hiding T 13:46, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I have trouble believing an article on this topic cannot reach WP:N. Phil Sandifer (talk) 15:57, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep as per User:Hiding. If there are WP:COPYVIO issues that's not a reason to delete the article just its existing content :-) Mark Hurd (talk) 07:20, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Does sound like a keep, but it lacks reliable secondary sources to establish its notability. If the material is true, these shouldn't be too hard to find, but it should be tagged as such.--Yeti Hunter (talk) 12:33, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep we have an article on the Ledger Award and, following Hiding, there have to be more sources out there (I'd assume their lack is because it was created by someone who knows all the information, which is fine for them but we do need more than that). It could possibly do with a good copy edit with an eye to tone and neutrality but that can all be dealt with using conventional tags. (Emperor (talk) 14:15, 17 March 2009 (UTC))[reply]
- Strong Keep Seems notable, and accomplished and any fan of Uncle Scrooge and Carl Barks can't be all bad...Modernist (talk) 21:57, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
