Spam by employee of nexTier Networks, possibly Mustafa himself, about non-notable software figure. Orange Mike | Talk 05:11, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Although I am not certain that this person rises to the level of Wikipedia's notability standards, I do think that calling this article "spam" is rhetorical overkill. The subject has been CEO of a moderately important Silicon Valley company, and has considerable achievements. We can decide to delete (or keep) this article without disrespecting legitimate entrepeneurs who really don't need Wikipedia attention to supplement their success.

Delete This is just an IT CV. Is there anything notable in it that I have overlooked? I also think that the article about the company should be deleted. It's an attempt at getting some free publicity. The CEO couldn't be bothered to pay a photographer to take a decent photograph of himself. Nipsonanomhmata ^(Talk) 13:06, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
