Unexplained contested PROD. Concern was apparently autobiographical article without references supporting notability. Cloudz 679 09:07, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete as not notable. I do not like what I am seeing here either - the claims made in the article would make this gentleman very notable indeed, but they are non-specific and so far unverifiable. To pick a few examples, it is claimed he has been exhibited at the Tate but leaving aside that a website search at the Tate does not find him there is no explanation of what and why one of his designs might have been exhibited at a gallery of modern art. Commercial design as such is not exhibited there, and there is no claim in the article that this gentleman is an internationally known artist. It is claimed that he designed the LisaServer robot, something that would not appear to exist as a proven concept, yet he is listed on the company website only as designing the case (not illustrated). He may have put himself forward for numerous design awards, but no evidence that he was actually short-listed for any. We can all dream, but Wikipedia demands reliable sources. --AJHingston (talk) 10:12, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete as not notable. I checked a commercial database that covers newspapers - nothing on him in any newspapers that I could see. Not much on him in Google either..looks self promotional. Did he write this himself??? Deathlibrarian (talk) 05:28, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Looked at the website SCRSE inc - he is "President of Design" at - only thing I could see of note was a letter from him apologising for how one of their designs was faulty and falling apart, apparently injuring people. Not very reassuring! Deathlibrarian (talk) 12:35, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete apart from the promotional puff stuff, there's almost nothing on him. Google News returns nothing. I think we have self or company promotion here. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:49, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
