I discovered this page after finding and deleting the affiliated page for the company he created, Wish Group, so full disclosure there. I've also blocked the editor for having the same name as a marketing company that specializes in web content, so full disclosure here as well. (I left the option open for him if he expresses an interest in creating non-promotional sounding articles and changing his username.) That said, the problem here is that although this article makes some assertion to notability, there is pretty much nothing out there on the internet about him. There are various press releases, but not really anything that would show that he really is all that notable enough to merit his own article. I found an article by the Globe and Mail that lists him as a "person to watch" but not really anything else. Not enough to merit an article, anyway. The article is vaguely promotional sounding, but not so much so that I'd feel completely comfortable nominating for a speedy as a promotional article. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   10:37, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - as per RHaworth. Can't find secondary RS for this individual. Eddie.willers (talk) 20:14, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Highly promotional and not enough independent sources The Banner talk 21:50, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete No actual sources found, and this guy's main claim to fame seems to be collecting acrylic desk ornaments. Grayfell (talk) 22:24, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete WP:COI biography created by User:Mikeagency (now blocked); the article says the subject has a firm called "The Mike Agency". Subject has various school-specific and local emerging awards but these do not look strong enough to demonstrate achieved notability. AllyD (talk) 06:18, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
