Contested PROD on WP:BIO grounds. If this man is notable, it's at best borderline and I'd appreciate to hear what the community thinks. He's a tech journalist, which means that he's written several articles and publications, and has been cited (mostly in passing) in others. The article's creator has provided several links to that effect on the article talk page. What has not surfaced, though, is the kind of coverage about the man himself that we would need for WP:BIO purposes: "significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." For instance, no third party seems to have been interested enough about him to cover even the biographical basics: date and place of birth, etc. Sandstein 05:38, 7 September 2008 (UTC) reply
