 * Retain. He's a former government official and stills influences politics and policy to a great deal. - User:carbonmotion - 17:11, 22 November 2011 (UTC) (NOTE: User:carbonmotion is the author of the page in question.)
 * Comment - How is being a minor member of a government organization notable?  red dog six  (talk) 04:42, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, —Tom Morris (talk) 21:34, 25 November 2011 (UTC)




 * Delete the resume which will leave it as a 1 paragraph stub The rest of it not only reads like a resume, it looks like it IS his resume, just pasted in.  Terrible content.  But subject probably could meet wp:notability. North8000 (talk) 22:27, 25 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Someone should rewrite the resume part if there is notability here. Stormbay (talk) 04:39, 26 November 2011 (UTC).
 * Delete. Gets stray mentions in a few small newspaper articles from when he was one of multiple deputies to the state controller. Other than that, there are primary listings, professional directories, and social media. Nowehere close to meeting WP:GNG, that I can see. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 07:25, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete no editing has taken place to assert notability. Stormbay (talk) 23:01, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable. The state controller is notable; her deputy is not. Google News finds occasional passing mentions but nothing substantive. The supposed California Fair Tax Initiative, that he supposedly authored, has no presence on in the news or on the web that I could find. Basically he's just another lawyer. --MelanieN (talk) 00:57, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
