He may have founded wiki, but is he really noteable? The founders of IMDb et al don't have their own articles, so why this guy? Fails WP:BIO and the WP:N test. Bravedog 18:16, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy and obvious keep with 48 reliable sources and a multitude of international media appearances, this nomination is just plain silly. You might want to read WP:Notability. VanTucky  (talk) 18:19, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - I can see where the nominator is coming from, but am in between. Not all sources are reliable, see this example. Dalejenkins | The Apprentice (UK Series Three)'s Peer Review-Review now please! 18:26, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
