Notability

So there have been plenty of articles and interviews with him especially concerning Civilization V, the game development, and him leaving the company afterwards to work at Stardock. I'm going to say he can pas the notability guidelines, just the page needs to develop. So admins please don't be hasty to propose deletion, but see where the page goes first.72.89.142.185 (talk) 17:05, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Someone actually trying to fill the article could easily find stuff.72.89.142.185 (talk) 17:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just to add to the above comment, there are plenty of criticisms of what he did to Civilization also available online. --Bobak (talk) 14:10, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
