This article is about a blogger who fails WP:N and WP:BIO as he hasn't been the subject of significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources. He has received some passing mentions around the internet, but nothing significant and detailed enough to warrant encyclopedic coverage.

(Note that this was a paid-editing project, presumably ordered by the subject; so there are significant COI issues involved with the creation)  Them From  Space  21:54, 5 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep. Needs to be rewrite the article to be less promotional, but I don't see any pressing need to not include him. He has a presence in the blogging world. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bali88 (talk • contribs)
 * Delete Having "a presence in the blogging world" does not make someone notable, there need to be sources about that (and not just some blogs, either). That this was a paid job explains the horrendous overcategorization (I just deleted a bunch of inappropriate cats). --Randykitty (talk) 13:34, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. I checked factiva for sources and couldn't find any. SmartSE (talk) 15:29, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. The Irish Examiner bit is a start, but that seems to be about it for reliable sources, that I could find. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 00:36, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
