Chris Westphal

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

no indication of WP:notability. Apparently originally created as an autobiography, most of the references given either do not mention him or only in passing. There is one reference to a local business award with a grand sounding name but little behind it. Google searches not finding any significant coverage. noq (talk) 13:18, 19 November 2018 (UTC)

CAPTAIN RAJU - the technologies I've designed/developed helped advanced the state entity-based analytics significantly over the past 25 years. Much of my work is used in sensitive (LEA) or classified environments; thus, it is hard to achieve/receive public references. There are many good articles I've written on my LinkedIn page and I am active in several conference agendas: partial list. I can certainly add additional references and citations as they become available. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.171.87.31 (talk) 12:01, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete There are no real substantive sources, but potentially Chris Westphal could be notable. I cant find anything on a WP:BEFORE. The article reads like he should notable, but nothing there. scope_creep (talk) 12:27, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sam Sailor 22:30, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable. The first source is a Raytheon press release; this is not an independent source. The second source does cover Chris Westphal significantly; it just quotes him in the last paragraph of an article about VisuaLinks. The third source is a local business award. The fourth source does not mention Chris Westphal, only Visual Analytics Inc. The fifth source does discuss Chris Westphal in depth, but as a local trade journal, I am not convinced that it suffices for notability. BenKuykendall (talk) 01:56, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
