This is an overtly promotional article for an individual with none of the sourcing needed to establish notablity. All of the sources mention him in passing and no other meaningful sources could be found in a Google search. In an edit history that dates back to April 2018, JBuckley93 has a grand total of seven edits, of which three relate to creating the nominated article for Salamone, two relate to his company and two relate to a DYK nomination at Template:Did you know nominations/Salvatore J. Salamone. The only mainspace link to the nominated article is from Saladax Biomedical (his company) and the only link to the company article is from his article. The article appears to be a WP:COI and has every appearance of an attempt to get this article promoted on Wikipedia's front page from an editor who can't possibly have figured out how to accomplish all of this in an edit history comprised of a handful of edits.

- Strong Delete This subject fails GNG and all tests for biographies. It also reeks of undisclosed paid editing. Lovelylinda1980 ( talk) 05:31, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
- Keep Thank you for your comments on the proposed deletion. Would it be possible to edit this article to be less promotional, before sending to deletion? Additionally, if the issue is notability, would it be sufficient to add the following news articles from Forbes and the local (Allentown, PA) news organization The Morning Call regarding Salvatore J. Salamone? These may help verify his notability within the fields of oncology and psychiatry, as the articles are from third party and non-self published sources. The articles can be found in a Google search for his name. ( talk) 11:40, 17 September 2018 (UTC).
