Has had to be deleted multiple times via CSD. Continuous adding of non-sourced, puffery material. And added back and removal of main tags by what I suspect is a sockpuppet. I cannot find info to make it pass WP:BIO via 42 as the sources seem to involve the company and not actual substantial coverage of the subject themself.

  • Delete Agree the coverage that exists is about the company, not the subject. No problem with the creator submitting a draft for that, since they very obviously have a conflict of interest. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 17:09, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. Creator works for him, see talk page. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 05:57, 31 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for now as my searches found nothing particularly good aside from this and this. SwisterTwister talk 05:30, 2 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to PureWow, his company - which is probably notable, though opinions may differ. There is not enough biographical information for a separate article about him. Both articles were created by the same POV editor, probably Harwood himself. The author and a probable sockpuppet have been blocked. This title has been speedied only once that I can find, so probably no need to salt at this time. --MelanieN (talk) 16:05, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
