Enough to avoid speedy but ghits don't assert any notability. CISCO is notable, he doesn't appear to be. Doesn't pass WP:BIO and Wiki is not a directory of CFOs Travellingcari (talk) 04:33, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

  • I would keep. He was CIO of Cisco, one of the top US technology companies, during its most important period of growth. During that he got a lot of coverage such as this and this. --Dhartung | Talk 05:23, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
  • I would Delete; fails WP:BIO and the press coverage is not really grounds for asserting notability. Eusebeus (talk) 23:59, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak keep per above and also interview I have added. Seems notable, if low profile. Am searching more. (As a subscription based service, for example, this can't be used, but does further suggest notability.) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:05, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment. I have found and added more, enough to confirm to my satisfaction at least that this individual meets WP:BIO. He has been interviewed in industry magazines and (as noted above) singled out as a leader in his field. He was also put forth to do some 'splaining when Cisco ran into trouble in 2001 here. I've included that in the newly created "further reading" section. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:19, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
