Businessman of dubious notability. Was tagged as a candidate for speedy deletion, contested at Wikipedia:Speedy deletions#Anthony Ulwick, then tagged for proposed deletion, which was removed without moving the article here. So, now, listing for a proper deletion consideration. Stormie 04:10, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. CEO of a well-established company, and author of two books - both which appear on Amazon.com. A simple Google search of his name receives 11,300 hits, and a similar search of his company turns up about 5,000 more. tmopkisn tlka 04:28, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment but only 163 unique Google hits on him and 358 on Strategyn. The Amazon sales ranking for the book mentioned in the article is 14,359. -- H·G (words/works) 04:58, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. In addition to the popular book(s) and the company, he apparently has been a speaker at a few conferences and him and his book are mentioned in third-party sources. —Centrx→talk • 00:40, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
