AfDs for this article:

Again, no sources that are credible and the page about Jon Jafari has been deleted 6 times at this point (see JonTron for deletion log) and has even been SALTed, and from what I can see, no sources have come up since the last deletion TheMesquito buzz 00:22, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
- Also, I would watch this AfD for canvassing, as the page is currently sticked at the top of the JonTron subreddit (

- Can I know why you want this page to be deleted so bad? The page was made not even a day ago, so of course it is not completely polished. The page is stickied because the subreddit is acting really strange, making low effort content and overusing jokes, and we don't want it vandalized, as we strive to provide accurate and relevant info.

- It does not fall within the inclusion policy for Wikipedia, plain and simple. And before you say "Arin/GameGrumps/Ross has a page though" i would take a read of Wikipedia:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. TheMesquito buzz 00:39, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

- Delete - Now, I like JonTron and his show. But I know there isn't enough reliable sources to back up his notability. This just needs to stop. GamerPro64 03:44, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
Keep Actually the wiki entry snaps in two... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.101.165.214 ( talk) 03:50, 25 October 2015 (UTC)Shitpost struck out ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 13:58, 27 October 2015 (UTC)- Comment I've tried to dig up some independent sources on JonTron, but pretty much all I can find are articles about his split with Game Grumps. There's this review from Tubefilter, but that's about it. It's not looking good per WP:WEBCRIT. clpo13( talk) 03:57, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

- This should have been moved to draftspace before coming to AfD. The mainspace title, JonTron, is salted so now this discussion is happening without its prior history intact. czar 04:07, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
- Delete - per last 3 AFDs. Lacks significant coverage from reliable, third party sources. Sergecross73 msg me 12:31, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
- Delete Or move to Draft space. No significant changes since the last several AFDs, still has a sourcing problem as before. -- ferret ( talk) 13:00, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
- Delete and possibly salt, fails WP:WEB. The only source that comes close to passing WP:RS is the Kotaku link, which still isn't great, is arguably trivial, and isn't enough to support an article on its own. The others, as far as I can tell, are links to YouTube, reddit posts, personal websites, and blogs, none of which qualify as reliable published sources. Also note that JonTron is salted, so this title is possibly an attempt to get around that. -- Aquillion ( talk) 21:04, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
- Note, Jon Jafari is also salted. -- ferret ( talk) 21:20, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
