Eldad Eilam

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Author of a textbook on reverse engineering. That is it according to the article. Article is three years old and text book is six. In the meantime, other reverse engineering books are on the market and Mr. Eilam is now CTO at GraphOn. I'm unable to find anything to pass WP:GNG. Bgwhite (talk) 00:16, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. The only coverage I could find was the article linked above about GraphOn. The name comes up in a fair number of items that comment on the book, but even the book seems to be borderline notable, and while his name tags along, nothing is said about himself, professionally or otherwise, which provides very little content to justify the existence of a BLP — frankie (talk) 21:00, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
