- Keep He is a notable YouTuber. He has substantial articles in the AV club and CBS news. Although the article is pretty dependent on self published sources. ~ EDDY ( talk/ contribs)~ 13:59, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
- Weak keep based on the AV club article, which indicates some notability. WP:SPS need to be pared down.-- TonyTheTiger ( T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 18:02, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

- Keep per sources on Google, Not all are perfect but notability's certainly there. – Davey2010 Talk 12:43, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
- Keep I feel it meets WP:BIO and WP:WEB pretty well. I agree that if he had not been featured in AV Club this would have been a speedy delete. Hemi9 ( talk) 05:11, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
- Keep This is an article with accurate information and that cites sources which are, while mostly authored by Craig himself, pretty reliable. The page shouldn't be entirely removed just because it could use some better sources. wilkesreid 2:37, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
