''"Jeremy's Yahoo! career started with the high-traffic [[Yahoo! Finance]] site, where he integrated MySQL into the large batch operations of the site's infrastructure, real-time feed processing, and site content display."'' and ''"Jeremy spent three years at [[Marathon Oil]] in [[Findlay, Ohio]] building infrastructure and applications for their corporate [[Intranet]] before coming to Yahoo!."'' using Zawodny's self-published information [http://jeremy.zawodny.com/bio.html here] and [http://jeremy.zawodny.com/resume/complete.txt here]. The first sentence should probably be toned down and pruned, but I do think the information can go back in with that source. -[[User:SpuriousQ|SpuriousQ]] 12:24, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

:Given that most of the information about Zawodny was written by himself, as nobody else on the internet really seems to think he is noteworthy enough to write about, I don't know if this fits the criteria "Articles should contain only material that has been published by reliable sources." (from [[WP:V]]). I have seen the link for self published information, but he seems to fail the noteworthy criteria...if he were really that noteworthy, surely ''someone'' would have written about him. I suppose if we are going to keep the article (until the next afd comes around) we may as well use his posted information, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth, since we can't verify it anywhere. -- [[User:Sir Escher|Sir Escher]] ^{<small> [[User_talk:Sir Escher|talk]]</small>} 13:32, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
