"YouTube personality", it doesn't seem to me that there are enough reliable/independent sources out there that cover this guy. The Hollywood Reporter article is not enough. — Jeraphine Gryphon ^(talk) 19:47, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keep - I don't know. Quick google search finds lots of mentions, some in higher quality RS and a few that give him direct coverage. (see People Magainze, Variety) I think this guy might make WP:GNG. NickCT (talk) 20:38, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak Delete - Yes, he may had some mentions here and there on People and Hollywood, but not enough reliable coverage (as Google showed) to establish him as notable. CookieMonster755 (talk) 23:35, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. It looks like there's enough coverage for a decent article. The Philly.com article has some biographical details, and his developing career seems to be covered by Variety and other trade magazines. If he were famous for one viral video, that'd be different, but this looks like sustained interest by reliable sources. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:27, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: His YouTube channel has over a million subscribers, and considering there's reliable sources, as well as the fact that he'll star in something upcoming, I'm compelled to say keep. SilverSurfingSerpant (talk) 01:59, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
