The result was redirect to Team Liquid. Will protect this to prevent undue restoration of the bio; any info worth merging to the target article is available from the article history. Randykitty (talk) 15:11, 18 June 2018 (UTC)

Gamer and co-CEO of a team that plays in League of Legends; notability has been questioned. The article was created in 2015. Redirected to his team, Team Liquid, by User:Drmies in March 2018. Today (June 11, 2018) the original article was restored by User:ImRespawn, a single-purpose account. The redirect was restored by Drmies; the full article was again restored by ImRespawn. I have temporarily full protected the article to get a definitive opinion from the community whether this should be deleted, redirected, or kept as an article.

- Redirect to Team Liquid. The redirect target was actually League of Legends at first instead of Team Liquid, but the latter seems more relevant because he isn't even mentioned once at League of Legends. 93 (talk) 22:38, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- He is notable due to being a relevant figurehead in the community. For example he is mentioned in this LA Times article, http://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-la-tech-20161003-snap-htmlstory.html and he is the owner (https://www.teamliquidpro.com/about) of the organization. A colleague of his, Andy Dinh has a wiki page, and I would argue that they have similar if not Steve having more influence in the esports scene. ImRespawn (talk) 23:36, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Team Liquid. As per 93. No independent notability. Onel5969 TT me 23:42, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
