"Cicierega created one of the most original genres of Flash animation..." This bit probably doesn't belong in Wikipedia, which doesn't want content that expresses an opinion. What would be the best way to express this in a more neutral way? AdamAtlas 02:56, 10 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Vote for Deletion again - If every 17 year old internet geek had an article on Wikipedia then there would be twice as many pages as there are now. Seriously - this guy in unknown to 99.9999% (approximately) of the world's population. Maybe his 'invention' deserves a stub, but I doubt he does. Arcturus 21:54, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Keep. The problem with that arguement is that he isn't just any old internet geek - he created a form of media that became vastly popular across the internet. If he had made only one flash animation that was just like everyone elses', I would most certainly agree with you. However, this is not the case. DemonicB 03:44, Mar 11, 2005 (UTC)

Keep. Cicierega has created a good amount of internet presence with animutations and Potter Puppet Pals, and has received even some radio show airplay with his band Lemon Demon. While he is obscure, he deserves an entry.
--- Keep. I found this article very useful when I was looking for information about several different flash animations. Ralphael 06:12, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Keep. Don't lose this guy, man, he did start a whole genre. Anyway, is there any reason to NOT keep it? I don't think so. VJ Emsi 11:31, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

I voted for this before, and i'll vote again. He's very well known to a large number of people in the U.S., and created a whole style of work in flash, not just a random video or two. Coolgamer 22:27, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)
- A Google search on "potter puppet pals" delivers 11,300 entries. --Mr. Fleck 16:55, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
Potter Puppet Pals is known to at least 75% of my school! He's like an idol to us! He's given us a way to annoy the crap out of a horrible, mean teacher at our school without getting in trouble Neil rocks!
He's notable enough if I can make a Potter Puppet Pals reference to a total stranger and have them go "You've seen that too?!" IzzyFerret 04:32, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
What is incredible about Wikipedia is that one can look up even the most obscure of topics, and have something come up. It has amazing, up to date information on so many different topics. This is the reason I choose Wikipedia over Encyclopedia Britannica. This article is where I first learned about Neil Cicierega, then finding his band Lemon Demon, which I loved. My belief is if even one person could possibly get something useful out of the article, it should not be deleted. --Aztennenbaum 19:58, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
See you in a couple of months. :) --Billpg 20:53, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
