Borderline candidate for deletion as an advert. He appears to be a successful architect, but no more notable than anyone else in the industry, which means that he isn't notable enough for a wikipedia article (IMO). No evidence of significant coverage of HIM, not just his work, in independent reliable sources. One IP edit resolves to his company, so almost certainly a WP:COI or WP:AUTOBIO.

Delete per nomination. This appears to be this guy's CV, and there are no real indications of notability. Nick-D (talk) 01:11, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The subject of the article lacks significant coverage in reliable third party sources and fails the notability guidelines for biographies. Alpha_Quadrant (talk) 19:50, 17 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
