- a paid obit, a blog, a wiki, the organization he worked with. Notability is not inherited and he hasn't been covered by significant independent sources. Sorry he is dead, but Wikipedia is not a memorial. Miami33139 (talk) 01:57, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Tim Song (talk) 02:14, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]- Sorry for late link but it is cited on books : http://books.google.com/books?cd=1&as_brr=3&q=jabber+peter+millard&btnG=Search+Books — Neustradamus (✉) 10:18, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- These books links are not about Peter Millard. An author who says thank you to Peter Millard in their book does not make Peter Millard notable. An author who says that Peter Millard wrote SoftwareX is not writing about Peter Millard. Finding the text string Peter Millard in several books is not evidence that Peter Millard is notable, the books need to be about Peter Millard. Miami33139 (talk) 10:23, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
