Article's vanispampuffery content is so high it could be nominated for speedy deletion as spam. References are to primary sources, nothing the subject does guarantees automatic notability, and a quick search of the internet reveals nothing to make him pass the GNG. I keep running into articles like this from Singularity University people, and I hope that's a coincidence. Drmies ( talk) 02:10, 19 August 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Delete With grudging compliments to the different SPAs that over the years have "maintained" this article: at first sight this looks like an impressive academic. Until you actually start reading... Lots of puffery, nothing of substance. -- Randykitty ( talk) 15:01, 19 August 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Delete He is a faculty member at an unaccredited university. Such people are very rarely notable. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 04:53, 20 August 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Teasing out the academic impact is made a bit harder as there is an homonym working at the Mayo Clinic and University of Minnesota, but the impact seems short of WP:Prof in any case. Going five SERPs deep, I could not find evidence satisfying WP:BIO either; some talks, but no WP:RS about the subject. Truth or consequences-2 ( talk) 11:06, 24 August 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. I see a lot of self-promotion and minor awards, none of which are bad things in themselves but they don't add up to notability. No evidence of passing WP:PROF. And we don't have the in-depth coverage in reliable sources needed for WP:GNG. — David Eppstein ( talk) 18:53, 24 August 2014 (UTC) reply
