This is a CV, not an article, and the given sources do not permit us to write anything more; they do not cover Gabay in any detail and do not suffice to establish his notability. Huon (talk) 21:48, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete not only is this article not supported by reliable sources, the creator of this particular variant has ignored multiple decline notices at the original draft (which was copied to sandbox and moved to the mainspace). Primefac (talk) 21:51, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NOTCV. – Davey 2010 Talk 22:55, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
 * really sorry if you think I have ignored any messages - i have deleted, amended and altered the items which you highlighted. there were a number of references to international media featuring the subject but the links came via youtube rather than direct - not within wiki guidelines.  happy to keep editing :-) Gemigem (talk) 07:47, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Unless better sources can be provided that are able to turn this into something that isn't a CV. &#160; Discant X  08:01, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
 * dont delete I have made multiple edits and the article conforms to guidelines. if you have a specific line on the page which you think should be edited, please do :-) .  Thanks for your help. Gemigem (talk) 08:30, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Gemigem, to start with, pretty much all of the lists on the page should be removed and replaced with proper prose about his life. This should all be backed up by inline references from reputable third party sources that specifically mention the facts in the article. &#160; Discant X  08:35, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
 * User: DiscantX thanks - bibliography list is standard though, right. I am writing the prose. :-)) Gemigem (talk) 10:42, 24 February 2015 (UTC
 * Gemigem, bibliographies are encouraged under the MOS. The problem is that most of the references either don't discuss the author directly (think of it this way. If you were to add a fact about the author, you would need to be able to add a link to a third party source that says that same fact), or are blogs (not considered reliable sources around here). Maybe once you add some prose in along with reliable sources backing it up it may pass the test, but at the moment I don't see enough to convince me it will. &#160; Discant X  10:52, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
