[edit] Bruce Johnson
Non-notable former executive of a small company that no longer exists. Not much more to say about this one. Qworty (talk) 03:02, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
- Comment If this is deleted, Bruce Johnson (disambiguation) would have to be deleted as well since there would be no purpose for the dab (only one other name on it). Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 03:12, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Intuit Canada still exists and is not exactly small. Notability does not expire; if Bruce Johnson was notable when he was president of Intuit Canada, he is still notable today. I added a reference. --Eastmain (talk) 03:30, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

- Keep. Eastmain is correct. Johnson was not just an exec but the founder and CEO of Intuit Canada, which still lives, and many people did their taxes this year on the latest update to the program Johnson wrote. Eastmain has also tidied the references to make some significant coverage in reliable sources more clear. DoubleBlue (Talk) 03:46, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
- Keep, really does look notable per origination of Wintax (see Intuit Canada#Profile). I think this article would be best moved to something like Bruce Johnson (tax software) or (computer programmer) or (executive) to distinguish him from Bruce Johnson (politician) (whom I just moved from Bruce Edward Johnson per WP:NCP), leaving Bruce Johnson (disambiguation) free to be moved here. --Dhartung | Talk 07:36, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
