Victor Lombardi[edit]

Article fails to establish notability, and consists mainly of external links. Notable or vanity? Radiant! 10:00, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)

Delete. Certainly not notable, and probably vanity. Trilobite (Talk) 14:56, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Delete, ad, prolly vanity. Wyss 19:47, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Keep, cleanup and expand. 24,000 hits on Google. Megan1967 04:39, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Comment: Victor Lombardi is a common name and only a fraction of these hits appear to be related to this individual. Moreover, blogger hits on Google are well-known to be vastly inflated. Wyss 00:22, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Delete, the organisation he founded isn't even on wikipedia --nixie 00:08, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Comment: I am the Victor Lombardi this page references, though I am not the author of the page. Perhaps a productive course of action would be to email the authors and/or subjects and ask for certain information to be added to the page (e.g. I've helped further the field of Information Architecture and would happily oblige). Incidentally, most of those Google links do refer to me as I've been publishing on the Internet since 1994. Threefour 21 Feb 2005
