CEO for a non-notable company is not notable. Note: this is NOT a 2nd nomination. There was a different non-notable Ben Weinberger, but this isn't the same guy. Rklawton (talk) 11:53, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete - Many of the links in the article are red. The company he works for got its article speedily deleted years ago and nobody has thought it notable enough to recreate. It is now owned by TiVo, and there was RS news coverage of the purchase, but it only gets a one line mention on TiVo_Inc.. The non-red link to the company's other founder is not even pointing to the right guy. Even if the company was more than minimally notable, we would not need separate articles about its founders. Nothing else that is claimed of him is notable either. --DanielRigal (talk) 14:23, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
