Well written article, however it appears to be largely autobiographical and I would question the subject's notability. References are largely from social networking sites with some minor local news sources. Wexcan Talk  17:27, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete old-style schoolkid vanity article of the type we (thankfully) don't see many of anymore. How this managed to survive since January is a mystery for the ages. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  18:39, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I fail to see how this falls under "schoolkid vanity", as I and a group of some others are simply documenting the work of a friend we admire, but if Wikipedia has to be so strict then it could at least pay attention to the vandalism and offensive language left on pages such as Priestley college that I've taken the liberty of correcting or removing. -- Analiencure
 * If you corrected the vandalism, that means that Wikipedia did pay attention to it. 98.206.166.236 (talk) 19:36, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
 * And as for "simply documenting the work of a friend we admire", while laudable, Please see WP:NAU.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 21:21, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - There is some coverage in the local paper, but that's insufficient to establish notability. But if he does keep up with teh work that he's doing, that may change in the future.  No prejudice to recreation of the article when that day arrives. -- Whpq (talk) 17:18, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - A lot more needed than a few mentions in a very local paper before we can even consider notability. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 18:11, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
