Talk:Adam Adamowicz

Untitled

This page shouldn't be deleted do to the fact of his importance in the development of various video games, and ultimately form the culture that our society is based on. Fallout 3 is also a noteworthy game, and their developers should be noted. He has also 7 years of being a veteran in video game development. Tradereddy (talk) 23:06, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Not a valid reason to keep it. You must prove that the subject in person is notable enough, not what he has worked on, and that he has significant third party coverage to show that notability. Furthermore please stop lifting text from other websites and placing it on Wikipedia, those are copyright violations and have been removed. Canterbury Tail talk 01:55, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

If the entire gaming press is talking about his passing, doesn't that make him notable right there?Dysfunction (talk) 18:07, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

it absolutely should be deleted. wikipedia is not a collective for every artist and his/her profiles. 203.219.208.78 (talk) 06:26, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

He created the concept art for Skyrim and Fallout 3, two of the biggest RPGs of the past 5 years. He deserves a page.

Plus he died 4 days ago you heartless fuckers. You think this guy, a genius in his field, DOESN'T deserve a page, let fuckwit whores like 'Snooki' - who let's face it is a piece of fucking shit - gets a page, you are fucking crazy !

Dude, it's wikipedia, not a memorial page. It seems like you have a personal relationship with Adam which shouldn't cloud your judgement. I personally think there should be an entry for him based on his effect on some very high selling game title, but not because he "died 4 days ago". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.100.13.66 (talk) 16:55, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

I kind of have to agree. There are countless concept artists out there. There are countless jobs out there, too, and I'm sure they all mean something to some people, but Wikipedia probably shouldn't keep a record of every person ever lived. People are talking about him because he worked on something very popular... so, by that logic, shouldn't the janitor of Bethesda building also get a page? Or the beta testers for Skyrim all get their own wiki page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.114.57.25 (talk) 05:58, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

I just came to Wikipedia looking for info on him. I can't think of a better reason to keep a page. 189.78.194.168 (talk) 08:38, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Me too, I saw the news about his passing and wanted to know more. Sitethief~_{talk to me}~ 09:15, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Me three - got linked directly here by UESP.net. I believe trackbacks make this notable. 69.155.81.39 (talk) 21:22, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

Add me to the list. This guy was a visionary.

Plus one - Bethesda built a huge memorial in his honor in their office [Blog] I dont think they would do this for their janitor ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.236.108.76 (talk) 21:22, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

I also came here 12 years later looking for it more information on him! Adreonz (talk) 20:12, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Status Quo

Concept artists and game designers are rarely recognized for their art and craftsmanship, and mainly live in the shadows, overworked and underpaid, while millions upon millions look at their art every single day when they turn on a computer or console. More than ten million people have purchased Adam's art, despite the fact that few of them could name him, or even take the time to imagine he exists. It's like little kids who never imagine that their teacher has a house. So I guess it's the status quo to judge Adam as not being notable, despite that his art in form and function has reached millions of people, while Christo hangs an oversized sheet and gets labeled a genius. Yeah, that sounds totally fair, so let's just keep the status quo going.173.166.110.9 (talk) 21:58, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

I was just reading wiki pages on the folks that produce music for these video games, I think concept artists should be given a similar look when making decisions as to whether they should or should not been included here, rather than what appears to be discounted right away.

Obvious bias and weird tone

This article sounds like it was written by the 12 year-old president of this guy's fan club.

"He had a huge impact on the look, experience, and "feel" in Fallout 3, Skyrim, and other BGS (Bethesda Game Studios) games. Both Fallout 3 and Skyrim have been extremely popular games - Skyrim alone has generated over $600 Million (USD) in sales revenue (as of July, 2012)."

Also, his spouse is "loner"? Why even bother including that?
