I started to clean up this badly written article, which appears to be an autobiography, before noting that quite a lot of the claims made in the article are not actually supported by the sources cited. Looking for alternative sources to re-write the article with, I'm unsure if the subject is actually notable. Yes, he gets mentioned or quoted quite a lot in technology news reports, but the depth of coverage is not really there - or not that I'm finding.

Hallmarks of promotional editing include uncited bio details like the subject's birth date, weak references mentioning their name but not critically examining their personal contributions, and extraneous self-cited projects and philanthropy. This has all of the above including for all I can tell, a garage band. Per DGG's maxim for cases like this, clear promotion plus borderline notability lead to a conclusion to delete it. Let's not waste any more volunteer time helping get this CV published here.- Bri (talk) 13:44, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I tend to consider IBM fellows as likely to be notable., though we do not have articles on many of them, especially the more recent--see IBM Fellow, but the article is indeed hopeless. DGG ( talk ) 15:50, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
