A previous AfD resulted in Delete but no action was taken? OrganicMatterDevourer (talk) 01:47, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Article laughably focuses far more on AustralianGamer while the subject is basically an afterthought. Neither is notable. sixtynine • whaddya want? • 01:50, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Regarding the last AfD, the article was deleted. The current article was at Australian Gamer but was moved to Guy Blomberg in February 2021. The previous AfD for this article is actually here CiphriusKane (talk) 02:10, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - Quick squiz at the references shows some reliable sourcing, however the sources are focused on something other than the article subject. While coverage does not need to focus entirely on a subject, it does need to cover them significantly. Not seeing that here. MaxnaCarta (talk) 09:06, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete I had the page moved from Australian Gamer to Guy Blomberg via this move request about a year ago. Since then I have grown in my understanding of notability guidelines and I do not believe that Guy Blomberg passes WP:BIO and I do not believe that Australian Gamer passes WP:WEB.

- Delete No WP:SIGCOV to meet our guidelines and policies. Shooterwalker (talk) 18:18, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per TipsyElephant. fails GNG. Cabrils (talk) 04:23, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep but with significant changes - This article should be about Australian Gamer only, not Guy Blomberg. While Guy Blomberg is still active within the gaming industry, he is not longer a public figure. Australian Gamer however is worth preserving because it was an important website at the time for the Australian gaming community. Not to mention it was representative of how the internet and internet communities functioned in the early 2000s. I will make an attempt to tidy things up into a small, concise article.

- The quality of this article is not at issue. AFD is not cleanup. I did not vote delete because of its quality issues. I voted delete due to the lack of significant coverage. Stating the article needs to be made more concise is not a valid argument for keep when the issue at hand is notability. Please provide sources as requested?

- @Patronise: would you be willing to link to the three sources you feel best demonstrate the notability of the subject? TipsyElephant (talk) 15:11, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
