This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because Zac Oyama stars in hit show Dimension 20 and has wracked up millions of views with his sketches on the collegehumor YouTube channel like "Zac bought a whip" and "don't start a podcast", some of who who've gotten less have their own wikipedias. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KyleKrug12 (talk • contribs) 21:50, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- @KyleKrug12: YouTube is a self-published source with no editorial review. So even if the videos had billions of views, they still won't count towards establishing notability. Basically, all social media sources are automatically disqualified for this same reason. If it was the official social media account of an existing reliable source (like a major news organization), then it would count because those posts are presumed to have followed the same standards of editorial oversight and fact-checking. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 22:29, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... it is still under development, and this subject is worthy of inclusion.
Zac Oyama is a main cast member of a streaming television program, Dimension 20, which has its own Wikipedia page. He seems to be the ONLY Dimension 20 main cast member that does not have his own page. He has appeared in 10 of those seasons. Zac did a successful UK tour as a part of the Dimension 20 cast in spring 2024, and will be a part of the cast for a sold-out performance at Madison Square Garden in New York City in January 2025. He was one of the cast members featured in a D&D special issue of Time Magazine in August 2024, titled "The Titans of Tabletop".
In addition to his work on Dimension 20, Oyama regularly appears on Dropout's "Game Changer" program, which was nominated for an Emmy Award in 2024. He also hosts/co-creates the Rotating Heroes podcast. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MadZaphine (talk • contribs) 22:31, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
