Ways to improve Mark DiMassimo
Hi, I'm Rosguill. Crecy1415, thanks for creating Mark DiMassimo!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. It's not clear that this article's subject meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines, as it seems to mostly consist of news releases in business publications that do not mention DiMassimo in depth.

The best way to establish notability is to provide in-depth coverage at reliable secondary sources.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Hello Rosguill, and thanks for your input on Mark DiMassimo. I'll try to add some more content and references. The reason I thought he was notable, and worth an article (my first, so please forgive any missteps), was that he is often quoted on issues in advertising and marketing. He's something of an eminence grise in the field.

Frankly, I didn't include this in the original version because of the way I read the notability guidelines. DiMassimo has a high profile in advertising, in part, because he is often sought out for commentary. That means he is often cited by high-quality outlets, but not in articles specifically about him -- something that the guidelines seem to discourage. I will make additions, and see how they work. Again, my thanks.
