Mr.Pimentel's story is very interesting and inspiring, and I have no doubt whatsoever that he qualifies as notable, but the article needs a lot of help. It is currently based almost entirely on Pimentel's own business website, with no in-line reliable sources to speak of, and it's written in a very un-Wikipedian tone. Secondary sources do exist. I've added a general reference to an interesting New York Post profile of him, but more work is needed. This article would benefit from additional attention from experienced editors, so I've posted a note at the BLP Noticeboard requesting attention.--Arxiloxos (talk) 00:46, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
