Advertisement. Seems to fail WP:GNG too, as most Google links I have checked were about his clients or his work, but not about him. The Banner talk 21:13, 16 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep - the article is a PROMO, but he published 3 diet books. EBY (talk) 21:30, 16 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep This article is a terrible puff piece, but his hosting of ABC's The Revolution alone seals his notability. Cull the 'he's worked with these famous people and sells this stuff' fat and bring it down to a basic 'career, list of books written and filmography' article and this should be fine.

- Update I have culled down the article to the basics, though I'd like to see that client list cut down a bit more than it is right now. Nate • (chatter) 20:37, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Per Women's Health, She Knows, Shape, Reader's Digest, and many more. SL93 (talk) 00:39, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- He has his own Nintendo video game. SL93 (talk) 00:41, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- You are allowed to rewrite the article. But at this moment I still suggest WP:TNT. The Banner talk 00:46, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Cleanup is not the purpose of AfD as notability has been shown. Now it is a misuse of AfD. SL93 (talk) 00:47, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- How to protect the spammer, lesson 14. Sorry, but this type of nonsense always makes my cynical. An advert is an advert, not an article fitting in an encyclopaedia. I still suggest removal of this advert. The Banner talk 01:07, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, but I'm not concerned as I know how such things go in AfD. You have no proof that spamming was meant anyway despite how the article looks. SL93 (talk) 01:08, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- It would also be rude to the original creator who did not spam. SL93 (talk) 01:12, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - In addition to the sources presented above by User:SL93, upon review of more (e.g. [1]), this subject passes WP:BASIC. Northamerica1000(talk) 07:43, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
