Promotionally created by the subject and speedy deleted thrice previously, the first time as G12 copyvio and the second and third as A7 no significance indicated. The article in its current form is more beefed-out and I think warrants an AfD discussion. Quite simply, regardless of the claims made in the article, the subject doesn't satisfy WP:GNG. There are plenty of hits on Google but they're all twitter accounts, facebook, linkedin etc. There is one questionable source, essentially a flashy bio page here and I've found a few copies/mirrors of that, but nothing else significant.

Weak Delete I can only find one or two reliable sources that talk specifically about the article subject, which isn't enough to establish notability. 19:36, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
Delete. A Google News search for ("dominic peckham") turned up exactly one article, containing one sentence that mentioned Peckham. Google searches for ("dominic peckham") yielded nothing indicative of notability: a few news articles mentioning him, but nothing with any kind of independent in-depth coverage. The closest thing I found to coverage was a Scotsman piece, already cited in the article; and that gave much more coverage to the choir than to Peckham. Fails WP:GNG.
