[edit]

The article that was deleted was created around 2006 or 2007. Which could be justifiable because Seidell was not as notable as he is now and the the article must have been too short. I wrote this article myself. It is new and might be flawed (for now I leave it up to other editors to improve it). But I do believe he has gained enough notability to have a wikipedia article.

the following is from the 2007 deletion review of the article, Streeter Seidell.

Non-notable humorist. Being one of many co-authors to a comedy book and being involved in a viral internet prank war is not enough to confer notability. — OcatecirT 01:11, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Speedy delete per CSD A7. This guy's not even been in a 'prank war', only been the victim of a prank. So far, such a total nobody--Voxpuppet (talk • contribs) 05:10, 12 October 2007 (UTC)"

Safe to say, that Seidell is adequately notable now. I looked up some references which are in the article now, will look for better ones soon. First of all, he wasn't "only a victim of a prank", he started it. Although, the viral prank that is mentioned above back at 2007 was admittedly not that notable for an article, but the ones that followed in 2009 not only went viral, they gained worldwide media attention, they were invited to Jimmy Kimmel Live and they got a TV show based on the series which airs on MTV, which they host right now. The show is on it's 3rd season. I think it's very safe to say that's adequate notability.

OK, but you'll need to find some better references fairly quickly. None of the ones you have provided are acceptable for Wkipedia criteria for inclusioin. If you check out WP:RS and WP:V you'll see what's required.--Kudpung (talk) 07:17, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
will do so. Just give me enough time.Jiggermeister (talk) 07:23, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I didn't know where else to put this, but is there a reason why there is no wikipedia page for Pranked?? It has like 5 seasons lol, it's not a new show.1rkhachatryan (talk) 07:23, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

He's currently listed as head writer for SNL in different media. Anyone able to change it accordingly? 90.252.68.111 (talk) 12:05, 16 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
