• Delete I totally agree that this article violates Wikipedia guidelines in terms of bias, notability, etc. Note that the original deletion nomination I made failed because I didn't see any support from other Wikipedians and didn't feel I had enough experience with Wikipedia to make a decision on my own. Plus one of the article's authors cleaned up a few things in the article to make it better, but it's still a fairly unimportant topic filled with primary research and bias.

• Keep I am the author of this article and am not connected to the subject. It is through my research that I developed the article and am always welcome to feedback in order to improve my contributions. To address the photo issue, I have requested a photo from Stephanie Lake Photography to replace the previous photo. Vast news coverage of the subject from numerous notable publications suggest clear notability, as seen in [http://reader.metronews.ca/digital_launch.aspx?eid=babae1cd-1c95-4364-94a4-5c1c67284318 Metro International (Page 23)], [http://business.financialpost.com/2013/06/10/next-36s-lofty-goals-and-hard-knocks-churn-out-successful-startups/ Financial Post Article], [http://www.vancouversun.com/business/Surrey+startups+counting+year+Michael+Cheng/8107480/story.html Vancouver Sun Article], [http://www.theprovince.com/business/Surrey+series+Michael+Cheng+startups+counting+23yearold/8107480/story.html The Province Article], [http://www.ottawacitizen.com/business/Surrey+startups+counting+year+Michael+Cheng/8107480/story.html Ottawa Citizen Article], [http://www.edmontonjournal.com/Working+city+success+stories/8109352/story.html Edmonton Journal Article], [http://www.thestarphoenix.com/business/Working+city+success+stories/8109352/story.html The Star Phoenix], [http://www.windsorstar.com/Working+city+success+stories/8109352/story.html The Windsor Star], [http://www.montrealgazette.com/business/Working+city+success+stories/8109352/story.html Gazette Article], [http://www.calgaryherald.com/business/Working+city+success+stories/8109352/story.html Calgary Herald Article], and [http://www.thenownewspaper.com/entertainment/Young+entrepreneur+noticed+nationally/7692952/story.html The Now Article].

• Delete purely biased, certainly not a notable person (i.e. Steve Jobs or Bill gates) just a bio to promote his business ventures that's all, so he can show investors. Nonsense! Tyros1972 Talk 11:40, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
