Delete. WP:BLP of a website editor, referenced only to deadlinked primary sources (his own staff profile on the website of his own employer, the program for a conference at which he spoke) that cannot carry notability, with no evidence of reliable source coverage about him shown at all. As always, a person like this is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because he exists; RS coverage supporting a proper claim of notability must be present for an article to become earned.

  • Delete Being a regular columnist is not alone enough to establish notability. No coverage to establish he is notable. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 17:47, 23 October 2016 (UTC) reply
