Richard Jones
RJ does not appear 'worthy' of an encyclopaedia article, thus this is a vanity page. Presumably the associated image should also be deleted. -- SGBailey 21:55, 2005 Feb 16 (UTC)
 * Text and image appear to be copyvios from here and here. There is a UK professor by the same name that has a book published by Wiley, but I'm not sure a single, relatively obscure computer text meets the 'audience of 5000' test. Niteowlneils 22:27, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion, or the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.
 * Seems to be a common name - there's another UK professor at Sheffield with two books out (one has an Amazon sales rank of 85,074 - which is probably somewhere around 4 copies sold a week, so not exactly setting the world on fire). Average Earthman 11:18, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, vanity, copyright violation. Megan1967 05:57, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete as copyvio. However, there is a Richard Jones who was a member of NSW State Parliament and who I consider deserves an article..
 * Delete as vanity and CV, copyright vio or not. I think "investment banker" really says it all. We don't need articles on all of them, that's for sure. And there must be thousands of Rickards Joneses. -R. fiend 19:30, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
