Lack of coverage in independent, reliable sources. No indication that this individual is notable enough for inclusion. -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 19:45, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
This guy has been named in articles in Forbes and the Toronto Star. If you google youtube and "Shane Dawson" (so that you get the phrase, not just the two names anywhere on the page) you get 1,710,000 hits.
1,710,000 hits.
Let's put this into perspective by comparing this to some other google searches. Note that my Shane Dawson google search only returned hits with the word "youtube" in them. None of the searches below have that limitation.
"Joseph Lieberman" - 376,000 "Barbara Walters" - 1,460,000 "Condoleeza Rice" - 378,000 "Notre Dame Cathedral" - 337,000 "Notre Dame football" - 429,000 "Linus Pauling" - 578,000
If anyone still insists that this person is not worthy to join the ranks of the millions of subjects covered by wikipedia, then my last suggestion is that you first refer to this rule (thanks to Dyaa for mentioning this rule above).AlexaxelA (talk) 20:48, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
