fails WP:NOTABILITY - see note below Jytdog (talk) 03:12, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

My attention was called to this article by this discussion at WP:COIN. I just did several searches and found no good sources: As far as I can see the subject of this article fails WP:NOTABILITY. The AfD from 2009 linked above had only 4 respondents and I don't think this would survive today. The article has been subject to a bunch of COI editing, per the tags at the top of the Talk page.

 * plain google search for Mike Filsaime - i went through 10 pages of results and no reliable sources, just a bunch of high-hype sites from internet marketers; none of these are WP:INDY
 * google book search is the same thing
 * NY Times for filsaime. nothing.
 * searched WSJ - nothing.
 * Delete. Thin gruel, worryingly thin for a WP:BLP, and not up to the notability of, say, Alan Ralsky. Guy (Help!) 11:33, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete I find the sources given at the previous AfD and found them very lacking as they were mainly just published adverts for get rich quick programs. All my other searches were disappointing in terms of WP:RS, so delete per WP:GNG. Winner 42 Talk to me!  21:56, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
