From Cleanup: Jeff Gerhardt POV, famous? (moved from Cleanup by SimonP)

  • This appears to be quite notable, but I don't know enough about the computer industry to really make a judgement. If somebody is willing to improve it beyond its dust jacket puff piece phrasing, keep. Rhymeless 03:50, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • agree with Rhymeless: the subject is probably notable but the article in its current form is way too long and smacks of vanity ("Jeff Gerhardt describes himself as an inventor and entrepreneur"). Ianb 06:18, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. In its curent form, it feels like a combination of resume and biography. Definite POV issues. Ocon | Talk 16:56, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Dude might deserve an article, but I don't think this is a good start. Plus, besides the other issues mentioned, much of it seems to be a cut and paste from [1]--note both have "is still in in love". Niteowlneils 02:16, 25 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Clean-up

I've made a start on cleaning up this article. Much of it seems to come from here or similar sources (including the odd bit of HTML). It needs further refinement, but I can't take too much of it at one go. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 15:47, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I think objectivity has been dealt with, and have removed the POV check. Anybody disagree?-- Scimitar

[edit] Made a few adjustments

I edited the page, just added a few links and changed some wording. I think it's looking more solid now but I'm not sure this one should be marked as fully resolved yet. Anyone else want to work on this a bit more or does it seem acceptable? -Jonah S.

[edit] just did major edit

just completed major edit for word use, flow, etc. can the cleanuplo template be removed now? whaddya think? Jekoko 21:57, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Agreed, removing cleanup notice. UkPaolo 11:40, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I forgot to mention that I deleted the following clause:

"when Gerhardt was not legally permitted to be involved in the ISP business (after one of the ISPs he was involved with was sold)"

It did not have any connection to the rest of the paragraph and I could find nowhere else to drop it in. Jekoko 03:33, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
