It's sad to hear about him passing, but doesn't meet WP:GNG. No significant coverage in reliable independent sources. HHH Pedrigree (talk) 20:40, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

- Delete Unfortunately doesn't pass WP:GNG and even his death has gotten minimal coverage.LM2000 (talk) 04:57, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- To be fair he seems to have died like today. So it's not so strange that most sources havn't picked it up. That being said, delete this, maybe if there does become more sources a new article can be made. Maybe.★Trekker (talk) 06:28, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Like Trekker basically said, if no RS are even covering his death, its a pretty clear sign he isnt notable. - Galatz גאליץשיחה Talk 14:19, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - I did find one article [1], but nothing that constitutes significant coverage. If any other news sources were to pick up his death, I'd change my mind. Nikki♥311 21:20, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Keep - Several sources now covering his death including a lengthy obit here: [2]. BurienBomber (talk) 07:54, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
- Delete The source referred to above by BurienBomber is hardly a "lengthy obit", more a collection of tweets and similar posts regarding his death. 2A02:C7D:3CAF:D900:A582:5206:94BC:8473 (talk) 11:24, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - If there' s not enough media coverage for this, it must be simply gone. Fixer88 (talk) 17:38, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - Unfortunately doesn't meet WP:GNG. NANExcella (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 12:06, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
