Hello CitizenHuman, thank you for your interest in Wikipedia. Your suggestion for this article lacked reliable sources though, so I had to decline it (see the talkpage for more details). Of course you are welcome to suggest an improved version, if you can provide additional reliable sources for all of the suggested content. Ideally all of Wikipedia's content needs to based on secondary expert sources like books, journals or reputable news media and expert sites (although a lot of articles are far from finished in that regard). Please feel free to ask me, if you have any further questions - I'd be glad to help. WP:Teahouse is also a good forum to ask Wikipedia-related questions. Again, welcome to Wikipedia.

I have reverted the addition. The given source was not authored by an acknowledged expert in a reputed academic journal (and only contains a passing mention with insufficient analysis of this claim anyway). Please do not re-insert such a strong extraordinary claim without better expert sources, but feel free to join the latest thread at Talk:Cloud computing (labelled "First usage of the concept") to discuss the issue. Thank you for your consideration. GermanJoe ( talk) 13:19, 28 October 2018 (UTC) reply

If he is instead notable as an advocate of a general theory, you need substantial 3rd partyindependent published reliable sources, not notices or press releases.

In either case, , you need to start with a basic biography: birth, schooling, positions, with dates and references. |sig=yes}}
