[edit] Alex Rudloff

The article is simply the curriculum vitae of a web-developer (appart from the section that reads "On December 16, 2006 Alex got engaged to his girlfriend Kathryn Staczek."). He may have worked at notable companies like Netscape, but this doesn't make one notable, no matter how good one could have been on his tasks. Google returns a great number of hits for his name, but most of them are posts by himself on open forums or his profiles accounts on a diversity of websites. The article seems to be maintained by the person in question himself, User:Alexrudloff, that also wrote the bulk of the article about his "long time business partner Gavin Hall" Abu badali ^(talk) 21:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

To clarify, an acceptable claim of notability would be something like interviews (or some other kind of coverage) in reputable news source. I would retract this nomination if it can be shown that the subject of the article is something more than a internet entrepreneur, blogger, and web developer that worked for notable companies. --Abu badali ^(talk) 21:35, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

• Delete A web search turned up nearly nothing and the one interesting claim, about netscape.com, doesn't have any cite, nor can I find anything which shows him to have been anything other than a developer (rather than lead developer) of netscape.com (other than wikipedia itself). I'm not sure that netscape.com is interesting enough to make him notable even if he were the lead developer.--Hobit 00:16, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, fails WP:BIO. Although as a programmer he has had some interesting gigs, he has not been written about in even the usual places like The Register. Seems like his time has not come. -- Dhartung | Talk 06:16, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
