Fails WP:BIO. No significant coverage. Created by a single purpose editor so possible WP:AUTOBIO. LibStar (talk) 23:00, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:GNG and WP:BOI. Looks to be a minor influencer with little to no RS coverage. ThadeusOfNazereth^{Talk to Me!} 23:36, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete – the sources here are all unreliable: blogs, forums, and interviews by Forbes contributors don't contribute to notability. Since my searches are finding no additional coverage at all, deletion is appropriate. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 01:03, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. The article is based entirely on 1st party sourcing. (Best source is the Forbes interview, which is a series of softball questions followed by paragraphs from the subject.) Given that his claim to fame is a blog series that is shut down, and a YouTube channel with less than 3,000 subs, I don't think any better sources are likely to be found.
