Unable to find independent WP:RS indicating that the subject meets our basic notability requirements. Nor does the subject's work meet additional criteria for WP:AUTHOR. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:24, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - the coverage on his charity CD is restricted to local coverage, that's great that he's an active member of the community working to make it better, but it's not enough to meet notability. As an author, I cannot find any substantial coverage of his work beyond these results for a book he co-authored.  Three articles spread over two papers.  Taken together, that's not sufficient for me to say he meets our inclusion guidelines. -- Whpq (talk) 14:00, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Just a comment as well that all the above news cites do appear to be about Bob Delmonteque, with Hays mentioned only as a hired writer. Delmonteque would seem to be encyclopedically notable, actually. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:11, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - Yes it does appear that way, but with the article behind pay walls, it is difficult to assess the content. -- Whpq (talk) 14:47, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
