Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mark Adler (2nd nomination)
Thank you for responding to the nomination, and for your efforts to improve the article. You make the point that his technologies are widespread, but that only makes the case that the technologies are notable, not that Mr. Adler himself is. I am a computer programmer and have written software that is probably embedded in devices you own and use daily too, but that does not make me notable. His technologies can be notable without conferring notability on him. Instead, what will demonstrate ''his'' notability is if you can show that he meets Wikipedia notability criteria. This does not mean that he is ''mentioned'' in multiple articles; it means he is the ''subject'' of multiple articles. My mom is on the town council and gets quoted in the local paper all the time; it doesn't make ''her'' notable because the articles are not ''about her''. It also doesn't mean that he has written multiple articles; otherwise every newspaper reporter in the country would be "notable". Here is what I mean specifically; any of the following claims in the article, if backed up by | reliable source citations, could show that he meets the test of notability
— NONE, NONE
