[edit] Greg Hoffman
- – (View log)
Three persons listed in the article seem non-notable and article doesn't assert their importance. Wikiolap (talk) 04:48, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - all three Hoffman's fail the notability guideline. The first could potentially be notable as a senior manager at Kowabunga, but does not appear to have been the subject of mentions in reliable secondary sources, and fails WP:BIO. "Senior Affiliate Manager" may not be as important as it sounds either - I cannot find any reference to this person either at Kowabunga's website or at the parent company Think Partnership. The second and third Hoffmans don't even attempt to assert notability. We know about their dog's name, their ear candling and that one of them was a Marine. We don't have anything to suggest they justify a Wikipedia page. Euryalus (talk) 05:46, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, fails WP:BIO x 3. No sources to attribute notability, no real claims either. --Dhartung | Talk 07:26, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - horrible article about insignificant people, this is no way to build an encyclopedia. Greswik (talk) 11:26, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Keep!: Greg Hoffman is the world famous belly flopper. He is entitled a page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.192.49.222 (talk) 20:05, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
I am the most notable Greg Hoffman. I have been working online as a PR/Marketing expert since 1998. I am known as the Marketing Gorilla. Check out my 80+ web references on two zoominfo.com profiles:
I was the Director of the Kowabunga affiliate network until recently when I moved into a senior manager role to participate in commissions and bonuses. My goal online is to remain number one for my name in Google and you can search my blog for references to that task. The other two Greg Hoffman's must have read about my Wikipedia find and started deleting my profile so they would be listed. That's why I attempted to share the page with them.
Visit my blog and see what I am doing for my 100,000 plus affiliates in the industry. I'm posting videos to help them make money online. This blog will only increase in subscriptions and reciprocal links. I have nearly 300 links through Google and 3200 links on Yahoo for www.internetmarketinggorilla.com
I am the notable Greg Hoffman on the Internet and I deserve the wikipedia page.
Please let me know what else I can furnish as evidence.
- Delete Comments above only confirmed my thoughts that the article was a vanity piece that does not meet notability requirements. OneHappyHusky (talk) 07:00, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy delete. Since, unusually, it's about three people with the same name, I used G11 blatant advertising, which it sort of is, although could be speedied as A7 too. Definitely not notable, makes no claims of significance or reliable sources.-h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 07:40, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
