This article appears to be about two different people. One is a producer of yoga videos, the founder of Bodywisdom and inventor of an endless candle, the other is the Director of Social Entrepreneurship at Simon Business School at the University of Rochester.

Additionally, if Wohl is most known for founding Bodywisdom Media Inc. and for being the executive director of the The Art of Peace Foundation, and neither of those two organizations have received significant coverage in reliable sources, how can he meet WP:GNG?

 * I wrote this page, I'm going to try to defend it.


 * They are not different people. Unfortunately it is the linkedin source which demonstrates this, which I realize is typically unacceptable, and the only reason I know for sure that this is the case is because I was at a lecture IRL where he spoke, which is obviously also unacceptable. I will look deeper into the sources and find the connection.

 * I concede that Bodywisdom alone does not meet the general notability guideline, but The Art of Peace Foundation does. The Art of Peace Foundation did at one point receive significant coverage (around 2008 when the songs for tibet album was produced), in fact, the album itself does have a wikipedia page Songs for Tibet: The Art of Peace. I will do some more research and make a page for The Art of Peace organization, make a page for it, and demonstrate this.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete - a passing mention in a BBC article about itunes in China, and several social media type of citations are not enough to support notability. ValarianB (talk) 16:45, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

 * delete insufficient third party coverage to establish WP:BIO. Founding a non notable company is hardly a claim for notability. LibStar (talk) 16:50, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
