I'm not generally one in support of the "deletion upon request" bit, but will note that someone claiming to be the article subject has brought up concerns about it: [1]. However, the issue here is quite fundamental—the "sources" in this article by and large aren't. Blog posts, web forums, etc., make up all the "sourcing" to be found on this article, and I can't find anything better when searching. I do not therefore believe that this article has sufficient sourcing to sustain it and fails notability as a result. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 05:48, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, I'd also spotted the speedy request the nominator linked above, and was researching this at the same time. I was not convinced that what sourcing I was able to find rose to WP:GNG. Additional sourcing showing greater-than-marginal notability would be required to change my mind. Checked Highbeam as well as the usual Google searching suspects. --joe decker ^{talk to me} 06:00, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
