• I vote for keep. I believe this person is more important than what people realize. If you don't believe me research this person on the forums. Plus he's gotten so much attention on the /idgames archives, check out the amount of votes he also gets. Justice ∞ 01:27, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

  Homer? Who is Homer? I am Guy Incognito. Grain of Salt 02:34, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

  Is that the best reason you can come up with as why the Doomguy 2000 article should be deleted? Check out the game mods section of the TV Tropes, where it talks about Doomguy's Warzone and the author himself. Plus Doomguy is actually an important topic to the Doom community. I'm guessing you nominated this article for deletion because you don't like the person himself. Justice ∞ 03:44, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

  Oh, this is going to be one of those conversations. Grain of Salt 05:32, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

• Delete. Doomguy 2000 is not notable, as demonstrated by the fact that he had to create this article himself. In fact, apart from threads (and idgames entries, etc) created by Doomguy 2000 himself, I have literally never seen anyone discussing his creations, let alone discussing him. His name only appears at all because of his shameless self-promotion. Grain of Salt 05:40, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

There's proof of people still talking about him on the ZDoom forums [1], [2], [3]. That's just some ZDoom posts, now to show proof of people talking about him and his creations [4], [5], and [6] for Doomworld proof. I think this article should stay based on the fact that he created Doomguy's Warzone and 30,000 Levels. Justice ∞ 06:10, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

• Delete. Such pathetic people just crave for this kind of unneeded promotion that you appear to be giving him here. Unmaker 01:46, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

• I think we should keep the article. I can't say that I like him very much, but he is slightly notable in that he's created infamous WADs. People's articles shouldn't be deleted just because you don't like them. A better reason is if they haven't contributed anything, which Doomguy2000 has, even if his contributions suck.

• Delete. He's notable only in so far as he has done everything he could to draw attention to himself, so that people would talk about him. He's vain and narcissistic, and thought that annoying a bunch of retro gamers (a.k.a. easily-annoyed grumps) was the simplest way to feed his vanity. I don't see how warzone or 30K levels are really notable. Yeah, there were forum threads about them. That's not nearly enough, though. They are not going to be very influential on other modders. (Also, I'm pretty sure he is User:Justice Infinity, which makes this article and its defense self-promotion.) --Gez 11:14, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

I'm not going to change your opinion, but I am here to counteract the fact that he hasn't been infulential to other modders. Go read Doomguy's review of Atomic Attack and you will see that the author uses plenty of resources from his Millennia Invasion. Plus the secret level in Beyond Reality pays tribute to Heaven, which is also created by the same person. There's this video of it. Justice ∞ 08:52, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

• Delete. Glassyman didn't get his own page, so why should Doomguy 2000? His ego doesn't need any more inflating. --Obsidian 8:04, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

Because it hasn't been created yet? Plus he won a cacoward so therefore he qualifies for a page about himself. Well hopefully I get around to creating his page sometime. Justice ∞ 08:41, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

Why don't you make one for Darkexodus while you're at it!? Neither him, Glassyman or Doomguy 2000 deserve pages in the Doom Wiki: being immature and childish should never mean you get special treatment. --Obsidian 10:52, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
