Shlomi Fish

Not notable, violates Autobio WP:BIO, orphaned, useless WP:N. EvanCarroll (talk) 17:32, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

One year diff of all edits done to this article by someone other than Shlomi (subject of the article).

Keep-just because there aren't sources in the articles doesn't mean there aren't reliable sources to verify information on the subject, if you search this person on a search engine, you find many Reliable sources for this person. The nominator should have tried to improve it before AfD'ing it. [1]--SRX^--^Latino Heat 17:48, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So find one source that talks about the accomplishments Shlomi! Please tell me why Shlomi is anymore notable than any other author of a CPAN module (myself included). This is a direct violation of a WP:BIO anyway EvanCarroll (talk) 18:00, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep - He published a few articles on the O'Reilly website, which is is pretty respectable. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 18:26, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Below from Evan Carroll

It only has primary sources he wrote, **and** he wrote the article so there is arguably a WP:COI too.
No notable source has written about the works of Shlomi Fish.
You can not tell what makes him different from any other CPAN author. Or, even any other CPAN author who has written to an O'reilly blog.

I would hope that not every one who has authored articles on O'reilly's blog is notable in your eyes -- and so I would ask you what makes him different? EvanCarroll (talk) 18:55, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

UPDATE Amir E. Aharoni: I think it is a rather clandestine tactic that you did not recuse yourself, or disclaim that you also frequent Israel.pm the perl monger group for Israel. Which is subsequently also the group that Shlomi frequents. I see this as a violation of WP:COI. EvanCarroll (talk) 21:55, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ehh ... I didn't bother to mention it because i thought that our Israeli names give it away too easily :) Seriously, you shouldn't be so suspicious. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 08:08, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Sorry to say, I agree with nominator. I was only able to find one – independent – reliable – creditable source for Mr. Fish. One source does not make for Notability. ShoesssS ^Talk 20:15, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete if there are no reliable sources about the person then obviously we cannot keep the article. JBsupreme (talk) 05:07, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No reliable sources per above. Culturalrevival (talk) 16:08, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Individual has apparently done lots of things. However, none is individually notable (e.g. writing a typical CPAN module), nor does their summation confer notability.Agricola44 (talk) 16:48, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
