After working briefly on this article, I'm having trouble deciding whether he meets WP:BIO standards. Googling his name and "PDN Photography Annual" didn't generate any hits. I almost did a speedy delete on him but reason took over: His claimed accomplishments seem notable but not very WP:V. So here we are... Pigman 03:22, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment. If you're looking for confirmation of the PDN claim, the list of 2004 participants is here. I think "award" means simply having a photo included in the annual, so it may not be so much of a sign of notability. Oddly, he doesn't seem to be included in the 2003 listing and I can't find listings for the 2001 award that he also claims — PDN's web site only seems to have the annuals back to 2001. —David Eppstein 07:06, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak delete. Still nothing has turned up to convince me of his notability. The inclusion in annuals seems to show some level of professional success but that's not enough for me. —David Eppstein 16:40, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
