 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. The subject has clearly been influential in important software development with the claims backed up by sources. However, the issue is whether the coverage is significant enough to meet our notability requirements, in particular WP:BIO, and the overwhelming consensus is that it isn't.

 * Comment First, this entire article basically sounds like one big promotional page for Huckaby, and it is entirely written by one user, Softdevusa.  Second, most of Huckaby's notability claims comes from within Microsoft.  Although Huckaby is head of a separate company (InterKnowledgy) that received recognition from Microsoft, I'm still not sure that Microsoft is a suitable secondary source for claims of  notability. --I Jethrobot (talk) 16:57, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
