Seem to fail WP:BIO and WP:AUTHOR. None of the sources cited are independent, as they blurbs on the sites of his publishers. Pcap ping  09:25, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment. His company, Hannon Hill, has been prodded. Pcap ping  09:28, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, I cannot find notability for this person, and the article was written by a close colleague of his. Haakon (talk) 11:02, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - no reliable independent secondary sources. If every 30 year old head of a firm with only 25 employees were covered by a separate article, Wikipedia would grow dramatically in size. There are also apparent COI issues. Racepacket (talk) 13:58, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete While he has an author bio on o'reilly, I don't see anything else that was not self-generated. No independent sources means not notable.  Hannon Hill actually seems like it has more notability than he does.  Joshua Scott (talk) 16:50, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
