Contested deletion
editThis page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because... (your reason here) --PhilippPhilipp (talk) 11:29, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
there is no copyright attached to the resume of Mr Visser. That's just what he did in his life. More appropriate question is in regards that I have seen that someone tried to create a page on him before but was deleted as he apparently did not meet your criteria for inclusion. I would beg to disagree. He is at least as important as some of the other CSR experts that have pages on Wikipedia. note that I added a few URLs to support his biography.
- The copyright is attached to the text, not the factual details. The page that this is copied from clearly says "Copyright © 2012 Wayne Visser. All rights reserved." Phil Bridger (talk) 16:01, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

Notable person
editA section on theoretical contribution has been added, as well as independent references from credible sources like Fast company magazine and CSR Wire, which demonstrate this person's "notability". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hoerikwaggo (talk • contribs) 09:16, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
Balance and independence
editThe page is no longer dominated by main contributor [merlinafrica]. Biographical information is all referenced with credible sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hoerikwaggo (talk • contribs) 10:20, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
- But it still reads as a hagiography rather than an encyclopedia article, so I am adding an {{NPOV}} template. Phil Bridger (talk) 10:24, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
Presumably you are referring to the 3 referenced quotes from Fast Company (magazine) et al. in the intro piece. These were inserted to help establish notability. I have deleted one of the references to tone down the impression of positive spin. If this is insufficient, I will delete 2 of the 3. There is nothing else I can see in the profile that fits your criticism. Hoerikwaggo (talk) 15:46, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
I moved the praise from the intro to the recognition section, I think it is more appropriate there and might address Phil Bridger's concerns. PhilippPhilipp (talk) 10:04, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
I believe the neutrality of this page has been addressed. All claims are referenced or cited. Please remove the tag.~~CambridgeCad~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by CambridgeCad (talk • contribs) 10:03, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
