Notability of PointCrow

@Ganesha811: Hello, I recently saw that you marked the article with both a notability and unreliable source template. I'm posting this here to let you know I disagree with your assertion that he may not meet the notability guidelines. If anything, PointCrow is notable as a content creator per WP:WEBCRIT, WP:BASIC and WP:GNG as he has had multiple sources significantly cover him and his video content. Also, the claim that some of the article's sources are unreliable is wholly inaccurate. Most of the sources here consist of articles from Dot Esports, Kotaku, Polygon, IGN and Nintendo Life - ALL of which are reliable per WP:VG/RS. The only questionably unreliable reference here is a Twitter post from him. However, as a primary source directly from him that verifies his birthday, it's an acceptable tweet to use per the WP:ABOUTSELF guideline.

Finally, all of the information you claimed was "overly detailed" and removed were relevant to his notability. They were all verified by aforesaid reliable sources and went into useful detail about his internet content - specifically, analysis and interpretation of his content and what makes it inherently distinct from other YouTubers. This is useful information to readers as they would want to know the type of content someone like him makes, akin to musicians and authors having a "style" section to describe their work in detail.

Because of this, I decided to be bold and revert both of your edits. Feel free to discuss below so we may reach a consensus, but in my opinion, PointCrow is notable enough for Wikipedia.

Also, I would like to thank DecafPotato for creating this article. I've pinged them here as well to discuss. PantheonRadiance (talk) 05:00, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
