It certainly does look like there is a strong COI, which wouldn't matter that much if there were good sources to support statements made, but without sources it is really hard to estimate the notability of this person, not to mention the reliability of the article. The assertions are so strong however, that someone who is a more accomplished searcher than myself, should be able to turn up some sources (which is more complicated by the amount of fairly notable David Rosses). If that fails, however, deletion becomes a very good possibility.

If he were president of Clear Channel, sure, but he was only Regional Vice President, similarly, with Y-100, he was just one of the group of people who bought the station. If uVuMobile is notable enough for its interim chief exec to be notable, try to write an article on it first.

I am the original poster of this article. As stated in the talk page, I built this from an interview with David Ross. I have references from articles about him. I can post them here if a neutral source can help verify adding references.
420:
important to note that Y100 (part of Metroplex) was bought out by Clear Channel, and that Ross still became a part of Clear Channel, only to leave the industry as Clear Channel's path started to change.

All of that is unsourced. Simply having and doing an occupation is not criteria for notability. If he isnt important enough to be mention in reliable sources then there is no notability. --

Needs much work if it is to be kept. Articles about persons who aren't well known should stick to the points which establish notability. Essentially meaning we don't need his life story. --
