  • Reply Perhaps the article should be about Sovereign Deed and not its founder. - CobaltBlueTony 18:06, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Reply. So by that logic, are you saying that Microsoft would get an article, but Bill Gates wouldn't? Mr. Moore is already listed as the founding CEO of a company listed on Wikipedia (Triple Canopy), I've included unbiased, outside sources that discuss his work with Sovereign Deed, including a story with a quote from a State senator, and I've included documentation that Mr. Moore's company had the fifth most trademark applications in FY06 -- which happened to be four spots higher than Mr. Gates and Microsoft. I really would like to continue editing this page. I appreciate your help. Thanks. Wiki BHMoore 18:16, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Reply. Not necessarily. Bill Gates has much more documentation to his name. Wikipedia requires documentation, difficult for a start-up company. I brought this here for consensus; I've made my position known, so now others need to chime in. (P.S. You may continue editing the article. Just don't remove the AFD notice.) - CobaltBlueTony 18:20, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Reply Bad example. Bill Gates is absolutely notable in and of his own right (Bill & Melinda Gates foundation, richest person in America, countless secondary source interviews with him and articles written about him, etc.) Notability is not inherited up or down - Henry Ford is notable, but not every chairman of the Ford Motor Company is.

  • Delete based on current web search and article. Could be persuaded if Wiki BHMoore's rewrite asserts notability and supports such through sufficient secondary sources. I would still be concerned, though, about violations of WP:COI given the uncanny similarity between "Barrett H. Moore" and the editor "Wiki BHMoore". SkerHawx 18:27, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

This is the first time I've tried to create a page for Wikipedia, and I didn't realize there was a major significance in the editor name you chose. I randomly selected that name so other people working at the company would have access to this and could edit it. Wiki BHMoore 18:34, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
