Chris Skrebowski
Trade-pub editor (for a red-linked pub put out by a red-linked org). Reads like a vanity bio/CV. Was Prod'ed, by tag removed by User:Monicasdude. Calton | Talk 05:40, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Weak Keep: google shows about 20,000 hits on his name, including publications and external interviews from some apparently notable websites and publications. Looks to be a notable editor. Article needs to assert notability though. &rArr;   SWAT Jester     Ready    Aim    Fire!  05:48, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep If the reds go away, give it sixty days for links and cleanup. T   K   E  06:10, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep, bad faith nomination. Editor of notable trade publication regularly cited by news media. If you don't like the redlinks, write the articles; it's not like Wikipedia is finished and all notable subjects already have articles. Monicasdude 14:20, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Hey, I voted a Keep. The author of the article in wikifying has the burden of active links, not myself.  Lose the attitute.  T   K   E  17:25, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, that was aimed at the nominator; I was just trying to repeat my prod comment from memory. If I'd aimed it at you, I'd have indented it so it was more clearly under yours. Monicasdude 18:34, 6 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Under what basis do you suggest this is a bad-faith nomination? Fagstein 18:32, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Weak keep. Google suggests some notability. Fagstein 18:32, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep until someone makes a Petroleum Review article... then merge to that article. Skrebowski is less notable than the publication he edits. No evidence this is a bad faith nomination so auto-speedy out of process is not called for.--Isotope23 18:43, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
