New blogger - first blog entry dated 20th December 2009. Notability not established. Claims to be "widely referenced" but no indication of that. noq (talk) 17:23, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable per WP:BIO, unreferenced, no significant coverage online from WP:Reliable sources, and per nomination. MuffledThud (talk) 17:28, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Noq - Agree it is an early stage blog - but the author does have some notoriety. He is referenced from Dr Harch's website at hbot.com and is appearing on the PBS special "This Emotional Life" on Jan 4. What threshhold of notoriety are we looking for? If you still feel this is too premature, by all means delete it, but as a parent of a child who suffers from brain injury I would think this is specifically the kind of information wikipedia would want to abstract —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fishpunt (talk • contribs) 17:32, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The links provided above by MuffledThud should be worth reading. I am sorry to hear about your child but I don't see anything to justify an article about a blogger that has been blogging for less than two weeks. Why is he on the PBS show - surely not as a blogger with no track record? The fact that bloggers link to each other really does nothing to establish notability. noq (talk) 18:07, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

I still think we should keep the article but if the consensus disagrees so be it - --Fishpunt (talk) 01:14, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
