Page fails WP:NAUTHOR and WP:GNG. The doctoral publications fail the GNG guidelines, the two books were not significant new concepts, theories, or techniques per NAUTHOR, and failed to have any substantial coverage outside that. ~RAM (talk) 05:53, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete not notable as a writer or as a computer programmer.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:05, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. His claim to fame is having written two editions of a definitive guide to HTML. I'm not sure that's enough. Bearian (talk) 01:14, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * , the guidelines for WP:NAUTHOR are pretty specific as to whether or not the author is notable - I do not believe that he meets the criteria for this. ~RAM (talk) 07:31, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is an obviously promotional article about someone who has gotten a couple research grants and written a couple technical how-to books.  Nothing notable here to meet WP:NAUTHOR, WP:ANYBIO, or any other guideline I can think of.  FalconK (talk) 05:47, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
