:({{Find sources AFD|title=Rosearik Rikki Simons}})<br />
I swear, this is not a campaign against ''Invader Zim'' voice actors...<br />
<br />
The sources in the article are abhorrent: an interview (therefore a primary source), a few YouTube videos (which themselves are just narrated listicles and a recording of a convention panel), two podcast interviews (therefore primary sources), a listicle from TheGamer, Simons' own books, and Behind the Voice Actors. Of these, only BTVA is a reliable source, but as [[WP:BTVA]] states, {{tq|Editors agree that its coverage is routine and does not contribute to notability.}} Not a single one of these is SIGCOV, and several do not even seem to be reliable sources in the first place.<br />

*Newspapers.com for "Rosearik Rikki Simons":<br />
** [https://www.newspapers.com/image/1060803983/ "Comic Relief"]: Name-drops Simmons as colorist on ''I Feel Sick''. (A reprint of this article was also the only result for his name on JSTOR.)<br />
** [https://www.newspapers.com/image/509739851/ "Week in Review"]: Name-drops Simmons as guest of honor at a local con in Missoula.<br />
<br />
*Newspapers.com for "Rikki Simons":<br />
** [https://www.newspapers.com/image/274240856/ "Kawaii Kon Talk"]: Name-drops Simmons as a guest at a con.<br />
** [https://www.newspapers.com/image/274424505/ "Kawaii Kon 2008"]: Same as last year.<br />
** Beyond that, any 2010s searches for "Rikki Simons" were either false positives for unrelated people, or passing name-drops of him attending cons.<br />
<br />
So far, none of this is SIGCOV.<br />
<br />
GBooks was similarly useless, returning only comics Simons worked on and a couple of animation databases. {{ping|Sammi Brie}} fared no better, finding only a one-sentence mention of his comic work. Also like Andy Berman, I found a couple routine name-drops of him reprising the GIR role for ''Enter the Florpus'', but literally all they confirm is that he is returning. I was wholly unable to confirm any biographical information, such as date of birth, spouse, or any work prior to ''I Feel Sick''.<br />
<br />
Much like Berman, I feel Simons has ''just'' enough credits for a redirect to be undue weight, but not enough to pass the [[WP:GNG]] filter. This is exactly the same SIGCOV void Berman fell into, so I think it's time to sing the doom song for his article. <span style="color:green">'''Ten Pound Hammer'''</span> • <sup>([[User talk:TenPoundHammer|What did I screw up now?]])</sup> 15:34, 7 March 2026 (UTC)<br />
