Non-notable. Claims he is "well known" are not supported by reliable third-party sources. Pontificalibus (talk) 16:19, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

- Comment Article sure needs a major sandblasting to neutralize tone, that's for sure. Anyone wish to slog through 132 results from Google news?

:I took a look at your search link, after further excluding results from webwire.com and other press releases, there wasn't anything left that wasn't PR cruft.--Pontificalibus (talk) 08:50, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
- Yup... I agree. Delete as unsourcable advert violation of WP:NOT and WP:ADVERT. Removing "webwire" from the search leaves 36 results.[http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=%22Jay+Kubassek%22+source%3A%22-newswire%22+source%3A%22-wire%22+source%3A%22-presswire%22+source%3A%22-PR%22+source%3A%22-press%22+source%3A%22-release%22+source%3A%22-wikipedia%22+source%3A%22-webwire%22&btnG=Search+Archives&scoring=a] And going through those 36 find nought but press releases.

- Weak Keep - A terrible article but I reckon the subject gets over the inclusion bar. Carrite (talk) 18:24, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- Delete. Suffers from refspam in a desperate attempt to prove notability (22 in a 5 kb article). These refs go to his own website, IMDb, or are minor. There's a lot of news hits but most of these are from webwire.com. All in all, this is a promotional article that has no place here. Was created by SPA. Christopher Connor (talk) 19:24, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- Delete Anything I say would be redundant after previous two comments. The subject of this bio is a key personality in a multi level marketing outfit who has a vested interest in self promotion. Wikipedia was not created as a promotional vehicle for confidence men. Googling 'carbon copy pro' is all the basis I need for that statement. user:unknown —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.245.248.61 (talk) 19:40, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- Keep if changed! Jay Kubassek is one of the brains behind the pyramid scams Liberty League International, Carbon Copy Pro, Wealth Masters International and MyLeadSystemPRO. This has made him well known around the world. --Cavernia (talk) 06:55, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
- Delete per user:unknown. Racepacket (talk) 20:24, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
