Fails WP:GNG. The Vintage Feminist (talk) 10:23, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Coverage is passing at best. Few of the sources provided are more than passing mentions; some do not mention the subject at all. Does not appear to pass WP:NACTOR or WP:CREATIVE as well as WP:GNG. Yunshui ^雲 _水 07:45, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep (Author commment) I contend that Michael is one of the most creative people in comedy, therefore he is notable in respect to comedy, in respect to the advancement of ideas. The Malcolm Hardee awards were an effort to recognise creative contributions to comedy, and named after one of the original pioneers of alternative comedy. Comedy is a creative art and not just entertainment. Lots of comedians who are known to have stolen other comedians' jokes have Wikipedia articles, simply because they've been on TV.

Delete. The sources currently in the article are:

65 words at Chortle.
A mention in a list of 12 people at Chortle.
A mention in a list of thirteen people in an advertisement by Alexandra Palace.
An award announcement by Chortle that doesn't mention Brunström directly - I presume he's one of the twelve friends in Tony Law and Friends.
76 words in The Independent.
A mention in a list of four comedians who were not performing at the 2018 Edinburgh Fringe in The Independent.
A mention by the awards site that he received a an award. I don't know quite how prestigious this award is, but it doesn't have its own Wikipedia article: just a section in the article about the person it is named after.
A mention as one of eight nominees for a "Best Festival Poster" award at the Leicester Comedy Festival.
A mention as one of six nominees for a "Best Festival Poster" award at the Leicester Comedy Festival.

and I can't find anything better in searching elsewhere. Maybe he is one of the most creative people in comedy, but we have to have better sources than this that actually have significant coverage to base a Wikipedia article on. Phil Bridger (talk) 17:55, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
