Promotional article on non-notable relatively minor non-profit executive, added to wikipedia in 2009. I'm listing it here instead of Prod to call attention to it, and to the problem of older articles of this sort. I like to think that nowadays we would have spotted articles like this. The editor is no longer active, but I am checking their other articles. DGG ( talk ) 00:50, 6 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The nominator pretty much hit the nail on the head. This is certainly an issue that needs to be tackled across the wiki, but for now this article is certainly a strong candidate for deletion. Zaldax (talk) 19:48, 6 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
delete does not meet WP:GNG at this time. Gaijin42 (talk) 20:19, 6 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, seems to be a worthy cause, but clearly does not meet the general notability guideline. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 11:44, 12 August 2012 (UTC).[reply]
