  • Delete. The edit history informs me that I was the creator of this, although in reality all I really did was convert the undabbed Darren Stevens into a dab page after somebody else turned the existing article about the cricketer into an omnibus article about the cricketer and the DJ and an online wrestling gamer. Wikipedia times were very different a decade ago, and we didn't insist on sourcing to the same degree that we do now or have such strongly defined criteria for the notability of radio personalities. But in 12 years this hasn't been improved at all — there are still no adequate sources, and no claim of notability compelling enough to hand him an automatic notability freebie in the absence of adequate sources.
