[edit] Michael Stokes

Not notable enough to have a page in wikipedia. Aminz 07:23, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Google show about 815 hits for "michael stokes' +programmer, most of which are his resume as per the WP article. There are also a lot of reprints of a bio which begins, "On November 6th of 2002, Michael Stokes, programmer of Shareaza, released version 1.7 of his software..." The relentless appearance thereof looks like advertising, and reprints of a press release. I am unable to find multiple non-trivial third-party articles about him per WP:BIO. One product he's associated with, gnutella2, is notable, and I hope he's mentioned therein. Per WP:BIO, I do not see enough notability for his own article. Tychocat 08:50, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to shareaza. He's probably associated with the software more often than not anyway. --ColourBurst 21:22, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
