 * Keep- John Rampton seems to be clearly notable, a well known and authority author for tier1 news websites known. He seems to gain authority and a known figure frequently asked for his opinion, for example here, here, here, here and several others. He seems to meet notability as an entrepreneur with Pixloo and Due mentioned in here, here. With a simple Google search, a notability can be established. My vote is a Strong Keep for him.Ireneshih (talk) 15:20, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep - The Tier1 authorship isn't a real mover for me; however, the fact that his pieces are picked up and quoted by other Tier1 publications shows he is a leader in his field. --TTTommy111 (talk) 06:42, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - the sources linked by Ireneshih are trivial mentions, the sources in the article are connected to the subject, like bios at sites he writes for. Web searches turn up pieces written by Rampton, not about him. Fails WP:GNG. Kraxler (talk) 18:38, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

 * I have reviewed all sources what Ireneshih has mentioned, I might agree to the point that they are unrelated to John Rampton. The sources are notable and ask for his views, but the question is about his role as an entrepreneur and investor. He has authority over the top niches including forbes, Huffpost and others, if the result is keep it will be only marginal and I might not be too much surprised, atleast promotional content must be taken care of.Kavdiamanju (talk) 17:57, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment - That was my take. He is an authority in his field and has quite a few references. The article itself needs taken down to the basics, but cannot see deleting it simply because of how it is written. --TTTommy111 (talk) 16:31, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
