Being mentioned in a book, is this enough to make this bio's notable? Fails WP:BIO and Notability; see Articles for deletion/Randy McKay (trader), Al Weiss. Seems this is One in a large series of article spam: see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject_Spam/2006_Archive_Dec. --Hu12 12:58, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 14:57, 20 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete does not seem notable. Delete unless expanded making a case for notability during AfD. Pleclech 22:58, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment The above comment it definately WP:ILIKEIT


 * Keep, after a minor rewrite with reliable sources. The Lead section shows notability and the References section should be read by the editors. Just needs even further expansion ASAP. Reason for deletion is no longer valid. There appear to be many separate industry media reference links, that shows there is reasonable industry interest. The Wall Street Journal and Futures (magazine).
 * Meets this criterion from WP:BIO - "The person has been the primary subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the person."
