Non-notable blogger and author. References provided are mostly faulty and dead; the remaining reference a single article or work at a publication. I can't find references for this person which demonstrate notability for the subject to meet WP:BIO or WP:AUTHOR.

Delete He seems to be a very prolific person, but non of his activities make him notable enough to warrant an encyclopaedic entry. He was an author in a lot of magazines but he never did any significant which would allow him to pass the bar WP:AUTHOR. Some of magazines he worked for were also quite minor. He also fails WP:GNG generally, as there is nothing out there which does talk about him. The article was written by User:Arcaruana, so its not surprising that the article reads like an advert or resume of the person. He even links to his own blog and articles as sources. Obviously WP:PROMO applies here. The article should therefore be deleted. Dead Mary (talk) 18:50, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as essentially a business listing which then, not only goes to specifics about his career, but then simply has no actual substantial sources, therefore nothing convincing. SwisterTwister talk 06:17, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
