Former executive director of an NGO, whose article cites exclusively primary sources and offers not a whit of reliable source coverage to properly demonstrate his notability. As always, I'm willing to withdraw this if proper sourcing can actually be added, but as a WP:BLP he's not entitled to keep this version of the article. Delete unless the sourcing can be improved.

April 11th--bio and sources updated. Might now comply with standards, although this editor is new at this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hrfan (talkcontribs) 16:38, 11 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Although a couple of good citations have been added, the article is still relying mainly on primary sources — so while it's certainly a bit better than it was, it's not out of the woods yet. Bearcat (talk) 19:08, 11 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
