From the article, sources and references it is difficult to see the notability criteria are being met. He is only being shown to make a minor contribution to a major game D&D. I have not done a indepth search but there would need to be substantial unmentioned events.Tetron76 (talk) 12:25, 12 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
He was the lead designer on the latest edition most important, widely known and influential roleplaying game ever written. How much more notable does he have to be?82.152.44.191 (talk) 17:59, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly. His contribution to D&D was not minor. Leadwind (talk) 21:49, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks to all for their work on this, both those who thought Rob was notable and those who disagreed -- it was a very useful way for me to learn more about Wikipedia, and I think Rob's entry has improved as a result of the deletion review. Yay for process working. Thanlis (talk) 17:57, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
