Eric Rudder[edit]

Nomination for deletion Senior Microsoft executive but not senior enough for Wikipedia. His current rank appears to be Senior Vice President, Technical Strategy, one of 9 Senior Vice Presidents on Microsoft's current Senior Leadership Team. He gets quite a bit of tech press/website mentions in the 100,000+ ghits he gets[1], but this is part of his job at a prominent company - communicating Microsoft technical strategy to journalists. This doesn't make him an encyclopedically notable executive though - not even everyone on the Microsoft board of directors (which he isn't) is an encyclopedically notable person Bwithh 06:56, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I work extensively on Microsoft articles, and this guy's name has never come up in any of my research. -/- Warren 10:51, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
