[edit] Jonathan Zizmor

Not notable. Only claim to fame are ads in the New York City Subway. CEIF © 15:39, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Weak Keep Looking beyond the subway advertisements, he wrote a few books and seemed to be known well enough to have 4,000+ ghits. Zephyr2k 16:12, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. In addition to that. According to his website he was featured in Harper's Bazaar and The New Yorker, both very notable magazines and likely to be verifiable from a more independant source. - Mgm|(talk) 08:44, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Insipidly weak Keep. Despite his books and his advertisements, he achieves remarkably low score of 305 unique out of 4140Ghits. The Gothamist described him as "the only dermatologist New Yorkers know by name if only because of his subway ads". Does appear sufficient to pas WP:BIO for name recognition in the nation's financial centre. Although he has written a number of books, many have no rank per Amazon. Those which are, however, do not even tickle the 2 millionth mark. His website has no Alexa rank. He may have achieved greater notoriety by having been charged with fraud, and having also been fined and put on probation for lack of due care. Ohconfucius 05:47, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Among other thngs, he was featured in a PBS documentary about quirky people in New York, plus I see his ugly mug on the IRT every day. TV Newser 13:22, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
