Does not seem to meet notability criteria of WP:BIO; the current references definitely don't support it. I did a search for references - most search hits seem to point back to this person's own website or to self-published sources such as blogs and online forums - there were a couple of publications there, but I'd never heard of them and was unable to establish any notability.

 * I am definitely against the deletion of this article. What does it accomplish? Who benefits? The more factual articles on Wikipedia, the better. Randomfrenchie 00:08, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: Non-notable; a basic Google/Yahoo search seems to reveal not many other claims towards his notability from credible sources -- or from any source, for that matter, that aren't his own personal web-sites, blogs, etc.  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 00:24, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - No independent, third-party coverage to establish notability; and arguments based on the harmless nature of articles (articles don't kill people under ordinary circumstances) don't bring them any closer to meeting the necessary policies for maintaining Wikipedia as a useful website.  ◄    Zahakiel    ►   00:36, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
