Scott Yates
Contested WP:PROD. Notability is asserted, but not terribly plausibly. No real evidence of significance. Guy 22:33, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment I tagged this article for improvement, because it is just a mess. Very little has been done to change it for the better.  It is poorly written, sloppy, full of information that is irrelevant---e.g., the addition of the notable people who are dropouts from the same college, as though Mr. Yates becomes more notable by associating him with Mr. Redford, Mr. Wozniak, etc.---and, the tone is one of vanity and self-importance.  That said, he does seem to have done a couple things that can be interpreted as notable.  The article needs drastic improvement immediately. ---Charles 03:11, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notable, but needs improvement. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 20:00, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
