Delete In that LINK at the bottom of the article, Williams gets one mention. I quote it here to save people time: "Urban Water Supply Project (Cr. 2702-SL) - Final Supervision Report , Cornelius A.H. Williams, Consultant, August 28, 2002". This is in Annex 7, a list of other documents. I feel that "SIERRA LEONE URBAN WATER SUPPLY Funded By The World Bank through Cornelius Williams" is, shall we say, a little strong. This is, however, one of the better of the 'references'. Most of the others are links to Facebook, or to Wikipedia, or are to the home page of the organisation mentioned rather than to a page showing that he has had some connection with them. His great works in the field of 'literature' don't appear to be available through Amazon - which is a test I often apply. Actually being listed there is no great deal - they'll list almost anything. Not being sold there is a sure-fire indicator either of lack of notability, or of an extremely limited market, such as being sold only at meetings. The company Suilen Roc Industrial Management has eight ghits - two Wikipedia, one Facebook, one Appspot and the rest LinkedIn. Peridon (talk) 18:21, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
