The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was KEEP. (non-admin closure) Discussion has been open for over a month, without significant additional rationale for deletion, and multiple opinions given with valid arguments to keep. I don't think there's any question that WP:CONSENSUS has been reached in this. Alan the Roving Ambassador (User:N5iln) (talk) 20:45, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

not a prominent figure; page appears to be for self-promotion/business Etihwttam (talk) 09:04, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I dunno, that is an impressive resume. The tone is promotional, but that can be addressed through editing. Not sure about this one. UltraExactZZ ^Said~ Did 17:33, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP.

I hope Wikipedia allows public voting - I don't have an account here but I am slightly disturbed by this site's continuous policies to delete perfectly legitimate article pages. I'm just a regular gamer, but I like to keep up to date on the grievous botch-ups you editors do on the Wikipedia game pages.

Jeremy Blaustein has worked on some major videogame franchises over the years, such as Castlevania, Silent Hill, Metal Gear Solid, Dragon Quest, and plenty of others. He has rubbed shoulders with the biggest people in the industry. Although he doesn't make games, he is responsible for these games reaching us.

Here is a lengthy article on his life, reprinted on several websites, detailing some of his work: http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/jb/jb.htm

If you feel the need, perhaps edit or alter the page slightly, but to delete it would be a travesty and, frankly, absurd. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.136.180.36 (talk) 15:40, 5 November 2011 (UTC) — 92.136.180.36 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

Keep If someone will be interested in person - let them get information. Enough evidence in top rated products. (talk) 19:28, 5 November 2011 (UTC))[reply]

Undecided. I haven't found many sources that might be considered reliable beyond a doubt, but Ultraexactzz is right in that this is pretty impressive. I'm listing what I found in the hopes that if I throw enough stuff against a wall, something will stick. [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6] Tokyogirl79 (talk) 12:16, 8 November 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]
Question - What account are you accusing of self-promoting? Have they been pointed towards WP:COI yet? 192.251.134.5 (talk) 13:46, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The article shows reliable sources have praised all of the voice acting in different things he was a voice actor in. He has worked on a lot of notable series, clearly this a significant role in them. Dream Focus 17:07, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep meets requirements for both WP:List and WP:BIO. – Phoenix B 1of3 (talk) 18:42, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. This article has existed since April 2006, and the article's creator, a long-time participant of WikiProject Anime and Manga, has created more than 150 Wikipedia articles in the areas of anime and voice actors, of which this is just one. I see no reason whatsoever to suspect this article was created "for self-promotion/business". --Lambiam 22:02, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - This article definitely appears NOT to be for self-promotion/business, per the nomination to delete.
Keep: Has reliable sources and generally well written. --Anime Addict AA (talk) 16:37, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
