Neutral for now, I think this might actually be notable, despite the apparent self-created vanityness of it right now. But I'm not going to try and verify it on a weekday night at 3am. Maybe later. Grandmasterka 09:06, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – definitely vanity/advertising as above. Moreover, any article using the phrase "one of the world's leading authorities" needs corroboration, as do phrases like "most downloaded guide to ...". As of now, this sounds like the claims I get in pop-up ads. Finally, if this guy is such a genius marketer, presumably he could write the article in such a way that we would be compelled to consider it important? ;) --Deville (Talk) 13:12, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I think an article on this guy's website, WhitePaperSource, would pass WP:WEB. The salvagable material should be kept there. Then delete the vanispamcruft. Alba 23:28, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and send author a white paper on what constitutes encyclopedic notability. Eusebeus 18:07, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
