Origins should be re-written in a more formal manner similar to the rest of Wikipedia.[edit]

Right now it's written more as an anecdote than a section of an encyclopedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.227.148.135 (talk) 00:00, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Why would this podcast not be notable?[edit]

Sadly the person who added the notability tag did not make a case for the non-notability, but I'll extend the courtesy of waiting a while for that user to make the case. In my opinion, the notability of the article's subject should be without question in part because it established Mike Duncan as a figure of public importance and is immediately germane to his first book - both things that Wikipedia also covers. But then what do I know? Hobbitschuster (talk) 20:03, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Hobbitschuster: there isn't a single reliable source cited in the article that would demonstrate that this passes the general notability guidelines or the subject-specific notability guideline for web content. To demonstrate the notability of a subject on Wikipedia requires that significant coverage in independent and reliable secondary sources exists. Right now the sources pretty much amount to WP:SOCIALMEDIA, WP:BLOGS, WP:INTERVIEWs, and other WP:SPS. Do not remove the tag until notability has been demonstrated.
