[edit] Kevin Meek

Autobiographical article. Nekohakase 08:35, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

• Comment. Autobiography is discouraged here but not forbidden, and the article does seem to lay claim to notability. A rather old reference can be found here. Can anybody verify the status of the "Gold Award" mentioned, and also comment on the assertion that "his work has been noted in the NY Times on numerous occasions". The latter, if true, would seem to confirm his eligibility for an article. BTLizard 09:53, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
• Weak delete. G-search for ("Kevin Meek" + lighting) does not give much in the way of notability. (balletmet.org is a biography by a former employer -- I don't interpret this as meeting standards for notability.) If the NY Times articles are non-trivial, I'd say keep, but they could also just be passing mentions.--Kathy A. 22:23, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Wholly insufficient refs for notability, and a user should not create their own article. NBeale 06:58, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
