It's better now, but we still need some verification on his biographical info. Maybe a bio on one of his company pages? Any ideas? - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 23:38, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to look at how I reworked the references. That's the preferred way of doing it in a Wikipedia article. More information is found at WP:REF. But for your first article, you've done very well in providing independent, reliable sources. Good job. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 23:48, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! Thanks for the note and advice. When you say "verification on his biographical info, can you give me an example? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Csteel25 (talk • contribs)

Basically you need to find some bio info about him somewhere and include references for it. Perhaps I should have written instead that we need some bio information from an independent, verifiable source, as currently there is no personal info such as birthdate, birthplace and so forth. (By the way, when you leave a message on a talk page, don't forget to "sign" the message by putting a ~~~~ at the end. It automatically puts your user name there when you save the message.) - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 19:21, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I seem to be having a hard time finding birth records for him. Any free sites your recommend? Csteel25

You don't so much need birth records as you do overall biographical information. I checked out his company web site and it had his CV posted in a PDF file, but it didn't have anything along that line. Maybe you could e-mail him, tell him what you're doing, and get them to post something on their web site. Just a thought. At this point we can probably get by without this, but when there's someone who isn't obviously well known, you need a little extra verification to show people he or she is notable. Otherwise, someone might propose the article for deletion. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 21:34, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
