Fails [[WP:ANYBIO]]. [[WP:BEFORE]] turns up the nyt obit on the article and a few mentions that he invented Jiffy-Pop. Nothing whatsoever in detail. The only source for his invention of a medical device seems to be his company, and other primary sources, which of course does not speak to his notability. He apparently also invented an improvement to a gasoline lawn mower, but those are also primary sources.It appears the only detailed journalistic source is the nyt obit, and generally if a person hadn't been written about except at the occasion of their death, there is little chance they are notable. There's been quite a bit written about his inventions, but very little written about him.

The Jiffy-Pop source is a Congara product page. Conagra is a fortune 500 company. It should be considered the valid, additional source. I will happily improve on the page, however considering the history between this user and I, a third party should intervene.

The Jiffy-Pop source is a Congara product page. Conagra is a fortune 500 company. It should be considered the valid, additional source. I will happily improve on the page, however considering the history between this user and I, a third party should intervene. Bmk812 (talk) 09:16, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
