Fails WP:BIO. Only cited with three primary sources, with two linking to his YouTube channel. Secondary sources mentioning him do exist, but are only mere mentions and focus more entirely on his games rather than himself. Jurta talk 07:59, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't fail WP:CREATIVE, considering he has major role "in co-creating a significant or well-known work" for example "Muck" and Crab Game. >>> Extorc.talk(); 08:37, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Crab Game, Not notable enough for his own page, but should fit as a section in his work.PerryPerryD Talk To Me 16:51, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, his games have made top charts on game platforms like Steam and Speedrun.com and he has more than 3 Million subscribers on YouTube, has collaborated with big names like MrBeast and Dream and has pretty big reddit following. I doubt he is not notable enough.

Some creators who have their pages but aren't as notable or are as notable as Dani.

friendly Reminder that just because Other Stuff Exists does not mean this article is notable. PerryPerryD Talk To Me 19:03, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Even without that, what I'm saying is still the same, he is pretty notable based on the criterion I gave. Moreover since this deletion was nominated, I have expanded the page, perhaps you could have a look. >>> Extorc.talk 07:11, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Notability isnt based on popularity, if that were the case then every single youtuber with over 1k subs would have their own wikipedia article. Also looking at the added sources, They all appear to be minor mentions, 1 of them is just an alt url to his youtube video which was already cited. I really dont see how this article is notable.

Delete Fails notability guidelines. Only Polygon has the high reliability on sourcing, but was only a passing mention and mostly talks about the Crab game just like other sources. OnlyFixingProse (talk) 12:36, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unless he was involved in Far Cry 6 and Assassin's Creed, I find nothing about him. Non-notable. Oaktree b (talk) 13:45, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Crab Game As this is his only work that has a Wikipedia article, and a short section about how the creator and background information would likely be useful. Jumpytoo Talk 20:14, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
