Thank you for the instruction. I understand completely now. What do you suggest be provided to satisfy the templates? I am very familiar with this gentleman, and know that these references and statements are valid, but I can't find additional articles, posts or resources online.

Well, since you are familiar with him and the other main contributors are clearly also affiliated with him, the Conflict of interest tag clearly belongs. Unfortunately I'm not seeing much to indicate that he meets the notability guideline, or these criteria. Most people in the world are not notable according to Wikipedia's definition of notability, and quite probably that also applies to Rogers. Anyway, those are the criteria (behind those links just above) that need to be met - and personal knowledge never counts as a reliable source, I'm afraid. Hope that clarifies matters a bit. --bonadea contributions talk 19:15, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

What more would help you see the notability? I'm wondering if your standard of notability might be a little higher than the Wikipedia average. Have you read the news articles about him? The awards he won?

Harrison Rogers is a notable person as he won 35 Arizona entrepreneurs and younger. He has been named in East Valley Tribune, Wells Fargo Stories and The Arizona Republic. He also has earned the title of "Most Influential Man" and "Most Influential in Valley Business" in AZ Foothills Magazine and News articles. MLR1990 (talk) 00:19, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
