This is a biography of a living person, yet there are no reliable third party sources cited whatsoever. I don't believe such sources exist, so this article will always be in violation of WP:BLP. GlassFET 22:21, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. Being one of (how many?) founders of the Register is of extremely limited notability. The Register is not as notable as it seems to us because internet-related stuff is overrepresented due to our demographic. Founded another online mag, which is bluelinked. This is still not enough. We don't have founder information except for very notable entities. Furthermore, the inclusion of links such as "The post that got Magee fired from The Register" makes my nervous indeed, that this is or could be scurrilous information and thus a violation of WP:BLP.

 * Delete, although the (co-)founder of two technology publications would seem notable, there are too few reliable sources for a balanced article. --Dhartung | Talk 19:28, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
