There's no real major reliable coverage. Many of the sources are straight from his channel, website, and even a tweet. Thanoscar21talk, contribs 22:10, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Coverage from Forbes [1], Svenska Dagbladet [2], Ny Teknik [3], The Daily Telegraph [4], Popular Mechanics [5][6][7]. TompaDompa (talk) 23:55, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
- TompaDompa, but those just reference his videos. Thanks, Thanoscar21talk, contribs 01:14, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. Anyway, here is a The New York Times article which covers Denby's podcast and here is a The Washington Post article authored by Denby. TompaDompa (talk) 11:10, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

- Keep It is reasonable to assert that a writer who has directed documentaries viewed by millions meets the criteria for notability. This article is no stub, individuals with lesser reach have their own articles unchallenged.Tar-Elessar (talk) 05:28, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Given that this article was only now put up for deletion despite being up for over 2 years, having a rich revision history, and consistently hundreds of views per day, it would seem to me that the only reason this article was nominated for deletion was because of Denby's connection to Nebula, which has also been nominated for deletion. Association between this article and another which has been nominated for deletion does not itself impact the notability of this article.Tar-Elessar (talk) 05:36, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
