[edit] This article needs a complete rewrite

Besides being written like it's copied from somewhere (and probably is), it's highly POV and written like a news piece, not an encyclopedia article. It's also a WP:COI violation, for what that's worth. User:Zoe|(talk) 18:23, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

I agree. I removed a ton of fluff and tried to present more of a NPOV, but the article could still use more work. Sfba 23:28, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD?

I'm inclined to nominate this for deletion, does anyone else agree? Anynobody 11:14, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Disagree -- he's got 10K google hits (even after quitting), is the subject of many neutral articles from verifiable sources, and the subject of google's cafeteria is part of the bigger picture of dot com employment and lifestyle practices, extensively written about, it has influenced a lot of people, etc. He's not the most important chef in town but given his relative fame and the connection to other subjects important to people, I think it's worth stay. The article's conflict of interest and poor quality, though, is a different matter.Wikidemo 06:10, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
