Single source of one-off news article from 2006 about a someone/some people who may have create botnets. No further information. This doesn't seem notable all these years later. Article is virtually on orphan with one substantive internal link. Seaweed (talk) 14:51, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Pretty great example of WP:NOTNEWS. All sources are breaking news reports, no apparent lasting significance. Fails WP:BASIC due to the reliance on breaking news stories. This was mentioned in the lead of Brian Krebs, but the idea that this interview is something Krebs is known for is absurd on its face; he broke stories on serious international criminals, not just one 21-year old that ran a Windows XP botnet — DFlhb (talk) 08:49, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Redirect to Brian Krebs or Washington Post, who were involved in the metadata event. The guy himself seems like some random skid, and the interview itself wouldn't even have been notable if the reporter hadn't messed up and left "Roland, OK" in the metadata. jp×g 02:20, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
