Article has been created by the subject so is both a vanity article and a conflict of interest. The current text has been lifted from the author's webpage. There is an award mentioned but I don't know how meaninful the Wammies are. Otherwise, the article lacks multiple non-trivial sources to allow the information to be verified and to help us establish notability. I'm also concerned that the author commented on the article talk page that it was his own personal bio so there may be issues with WP:USER. In the event that the award makes the subject notable (dunno about that myself) than I suggest we stub the article and let it start fresh. Otherwise, the vanity, COI, lack of sources and possible copyvio makes this a problem article. Note that I removed the speedy myself in favour of an AFD. Spartaz ^Humbug! 20:51, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
