Not a notable person. Other editors have reviewed the content of the article and discovered that the citations either lead to the subject's own web properties or 404. Once those unreliable citations were removed, there is nothing left of note. Shritwod (talk) 09:03, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete not notable per WP:BIO. My Google searches found loads of references to things he's written, events he's spoken at and so on but nothing substantial which is about him and could be used to reference an article. Neiltonks (talk) 09:45, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. -- Hoary (talk) 11:42, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. Not notable; trivial; reads like a promo piece. Kierzek (talk) 13:49, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Note for posterity: The reviews of the content that Shritwod mentions above look likely to end up in WP:BLP/N/Archive262. -- Hoary (talk) 14:23, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete I was the original editor that removed the 404'd citations. My team and I did a load of research (background check for a client) and noticed nearly all citations were links to web property he owned (whois check confirmed). As Shritwod pointed out, once all the non-existent/unreliable citations were removed, there's no need for an article.  73.104.46.148 (talk) 20:27, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per above; note anon rewriting and expanding of the article, currently going on does the article no good, and seems to indicate the article should be deleted ASAP, maybe even and definitely salted. --Francis Schonken (talk) 07:28, 7 February 2018 (UTC) (updated 06:49, 9 February 2018 (UTC))
 * I've removed the badly-sourced puffery. Neiltonks (talk) 09:04, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
 * The IP continues to edit-war their puffery in : they seem to have no gusto to back down, so I repeat my suggestion that the page should not only be deleted ASAP but also salted to prevent further repetitive re-introduction of bloat regarding the subject of the article (who doesn't pass WP:GNG anyhow). --Francis Schonken (talk) 06:49, 9 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete Fails WP:GNG....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 16:38, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Bio has been pending deletion for 7 days currently. Nothing has changed, and it's now a thin and consistently vandalized page. I suggest it should be deleted & salted. 98.231.72.3 (talk) 09:00, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
