The page is a little cluttered with information that isn’t just biographical. It might breathe better if the works were stated but linked to articles exploring them further. Schracq ( talk) 00:46, 23 December 2017 (UTC) reply

A major contributor to this article is user:Jeremyrlent and the sources for the article are overwhelmingly works of the article subject, Jeremy Lent, himself. This suggests that the article might not take an entirely neutral perspective (or at least that there may be a potential conflict of interest that the reader should be aware of). This possibly arises in the section on past career, that appears to distance Jeremy Lent from the troubles facing NextCard after his departure. Compare to the tone of the NextCard aricle itself.

• Probably sufficient detail is given in the context of Deep Adaptation appears in this article
• Lent paid $894,000 following NextCard's failure as described in this short NYT article OPENERS: SUITS; CASH ONLY, PLEASE
• Review of Patterns of Meaning by The Ecologist's co-editor Brendan Montague Beating the system - metaphorically
• SEC accuses former NextCard execs of Fraud (2004, NBC reprint of AP)

And I'm collecting some sources for a possible article on Lent's book The Patterning Instinct, which seems much more likely to achieve notability, here.

• NextCard Files Suit Against Providian / It claims credit card behemoth copied its online banner ad (SF Gate, 1999)
• SEC Sues Former NextCard Executives (LA Times, 2004, from AP)
• Venture Capitalists Love E-Commerce (SF Gate, 1999, $ in Providan and NextCard)
• GOING FOR BROKERS / Net mortgage, credit card firms trying to cash in on success of online stock traders (SF Gate, 1999, interview on NextCard)
• [ http://thesustainabilityagenda.com/episode-57-interview-jeremy-lent-author-patterning-instinct/ Possible EL interview with Lent on a podcast)
• Amazon.com and NextCard Launch Cobranded Credit Card (2000, Amazon blog, press release)
