Basically a hyperbolic resume. Only references that mention him are a directory page and an article that mentions him as a potential co-owner of a hockey team that appears to have never happened. Richfife (talk) 14:41, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I found a few hits ([1], [2], [3]), but they're not really coverage of Dr. Crowfoot himself. We would need articles in reliable sources, such as newspapers, that demonstrate his importance through coverage of him. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:22, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as I echo what's been said here, none of this suggests independent notability. SwisterTwister talk 05:43, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete His ancestor was notable, but he is not - based on Wikipedia's criterion of needing significant coverage from independent reliable sources. The article contains four references. Two of them are reliable sources but are about Chief Crowfoot and don't mention this subject at all. The third appears to be his own webpage. The fourth mentions him in passing in an article about Edmonton sports. I'm sure he is a good dentist and a good citizen, but this international encyclopedia requires significant coverage and he hasn't gotten it. --MelanieN (talk) 02:34, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
