Contested prod of mine. Since prod one published article has been added - but I've searched google, Ingenta and Blackwell Synergy and I can't find anything that brings this guy anywhere close to meeting WP:BIO or WP:PROF for notability. CTO of a university spin-out company with no other real evidence of notability is just not enough in my book. Madmedea 13:13, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletions. -- Pete.Hurd 13:58, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. His main claim to fame appears to be being CTO of a company that doesn't pass WP:ORG (no press listed, none found in Google news archive). That's not enough, and the minor academic accomplishments don't make up for it. —David Eppstein 01:02, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

• Delete unless more sources can be found. In technology someone in industry without a PhD can be a notable researcher or inventor, but there have to be some documented research areas or inventions, etc. as for other scientists. DGG 04:39, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per Eppstein, after moving the listed publication to the company (which still may not be enough to save that from a prod tag). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mscuthbert (talk • contribs) 23:35, 27 April 2007 (UTC).
