Promotional article ~~with edits that are likely from his publicist~~. I can't find much secondary source coverage about him, other than this article in Scouting Magazine and a couple mentions of his speaking engagements. agtx 19:51, 2 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Although the most recent potential conflict may be resolved, the article is still heavily promotional in tone. More importantly though, the subject doesn't meet WP:BIO or WP:GNG as far as I can tell. agtx 01:09, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am purely a volunteer and not being compensated in any way. I think that your other concerns can be addressed with some edits to the tone and additional references and do not warrant complete deletion. Thank you! KBHunter (talk) 12:39, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately delete for now and draft/userfy if needed as although the article is neat and sourced, the sources could be better and I would've actually suggested moving to the show's article (Bridge the Gap to Pine Ridge) but there's no current one. My searches found the best results here and here. SwisterTwister talk 06:36, 4 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The argument for keeping would be WP:GNG, but 2-3 sources of information published by a third-party have not been identified. Blue Rasberry (talk) 15:35, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete As above, not enough reliable sources to pass WP:GNG. I also have no objections to it being moved to draftspace. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:47, 8 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
