Well, first of all this is an unsourced BLP, but obviously it's not that simple. It contains a big list of references, many of which mention the subject. Furthermore, searching for his name brings up many more. The problem is that I can't find sustained in-depth coverage for him. His name pops up in a number of news reports giving interviews and soundbites as a spokesman on behalf of his various employers (notably National Cyber Safety and Security Standards), there are links to videos of him giving speeches, but I'm really struggling to find anything about the person themselves. I'm unconvinced that he's independently notable. Black Kite (talk) 12:17, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete Holy linkspam, botman. I'm on the fence about this, but I'm pretty sure his appearances are entirely as a representative of someone else who's actually in charge. Even as (additional) director, he hasn't actually done anything notable within his organization. If nothing else, it's WP:TOOSOON 157.235.66.80 (talk) 17:41, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Trivial and WP:RUNOFTHEMILL coverage. Subject fails WP:BIO and WP:GNG. Anup [Talk] 00:00, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, sources appear to be trivial "John Smith at Big Company said..." spokesman quotes rather than telling us anything substantial about Reddy as a person. The "Effulgent Star of the Decade" award doesn't seem hugely significant if a hundred people get it every year. --McGeddon (talk) 17:33, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - He seems to get quoted a lot, but not finding (in English) any coverage of him personally at this time. --Finngall ^talk 23:15, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
