The result was delete. This article has been at AfD for three weeks. That's more than enough time for someone to make improvements. If somebody declares a firm intention to work on it, I would consider userfying. Drop me a line. Ad Orientem (talk) 01:30, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notability concerns. The refs really don't say why this person passes WP:N. Before isn't showing anything better than the refs already there. This is the third nomination, the last being in 2008, and ending no consensus. It appears all the refs relate to the period around 2000-2008, I'm doubtful that if he was really notable he would basically disappear although it is possible.

Do not keep, but possibly move to draft space to provide an opportunity for improvements to be made, if sources can be found. bd2412 T 19:14, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
