Austin Evans is notable because there are multiple secondary, reliable sources about his YouTube videos, his career as a tech vlogger/journalist and a person in general. Tubefilter and The Daily Dot reported on his tragic apartment fire in 2014 along with the tech community bonding together to offer their condolences and appreciation for Evans as a YouTuber. He has also had various tech articles about his work published in reliable websites such as The Verge, Digital Trends, Engadget, Kotaku, Video Games Chronicle, GamesRadar+ and BGR.* Also, his coverage of the PS5 model in August 2021 garnered plenty of news coverage, more than it had any right to attain; clearly media outlets actually considered it that significant. Finally, tech YouTubers like Marques Brownlee, Linus Sebastian and Jonathan Morrison have also praised Evans in the past. The only real concern is the Business Insider interview/essay which is a primary source, but even so, the number of secondary sources about him dwarfs that BI source easily. Overall, he meets WP:GNG, WP:BASIC and WP:WEB with flying colors.
