  1. This article doesn't seem very missional. Needs work if it's going to stay I think. Bongolian (talk) 04:32, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

  1. This article is about a figure who is relative to the clogosphere. Specifically a figure who is a well regarded internet celebrity and an old guard at that. RationalWiki's mission statement is to analyse and refute pseudoscience. There is a lot about Maddox that one can be both critical and supportive about. I admit that this page needs work, but it can evolve into something. — Unsigned, by: RakortheTerrible / talk / contribs

  3. He is very similar to Penn & Teller with some of his info; he grilled anti-vaxxers but oversimplified the gender gap.--Owlman (talk) (mail) 12:41, 16 May 2016 (UTC) 12:41, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
  4. Maddox is one of the oldest "Internet celebrities". If we can have articles on random Youtubers I've never heard of, we can have one on him. Maybe give an article more than 24 hours to develop before hauling it to AfD? --Ymir (talk) 20:10, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
  5. Remove the fanboy slant of the article, add the exploration of his politics (which seem libertarian-ish), a criticism section (for example that he sometimes resorted to arouse his sizable legion of fans into online-harassing people who criticized him by writing a hate mail).
