Delete Lacks notoriety. WP:BIO. sig1068 — Preceding undated comment added 00:44, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Insufficient significant coverage from independent reliable sources to establish notability. There is some independent RS coverage, but it tends to be interview-heavy, and to an extent relies on Towns as a source about other topics more than covering information about Towns as a topic. Sources considered:

Computerworld (Australia) "Dunc-Tank: Success or failure?"
ZDNet "Towns the talk of Debian Project"
"https://web.archive.org/web/20061005153958/http://www.itwire.com.au/content/view/5684/997/ ITWire] "A conversation with Anthony Towns"

There is other minor coverage, with just a sentence or two mentioning Towns, that I did not consider. I didn't search that exhaustively for new sources, so perhaps I missed something, and there could well be sources that aren't in Google. Agyle (talk) 03:18, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
