Serious questions over notability; lack of reliable or secondary sources mentioning this person. SynergyBlades (talk) 22:09, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Verifiability is an issue for this article which does not cite any reliable sources. Stifle (talk) 22:23, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. I'm becoming a little swayed towards keep....two of the external links are primary sources, so I've discounted them, but the Global Gourmet article offers significant coverage, as does a WineX Magazine article (newly found on Google,now added to the article). Obviously a far cry from academic papers, but it indicates to me that Pott is notable in the wine world at least. He also got coverage in both USA Today and news.com.au  for spraying his grapes with sunscreen (again not significant coverage, but may add to the debate!) I'll reserve judgement as to whether this is enough to keep the article, but would like to hear other editors thoughts. Paulbrock (talk) 22:59, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. As well as the sources mentioned by by Paulbrock the coverage at Google News indicates notability. Phil Bridger (talk) 10:57, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
