Not yet notable per WP:ACADEMIC as a computer scientist, nor WP:BIO as a businessman, nor WP:NTRACK as a youth athlete. He's helpfully swatted a lot of software bugs, but the references cited for this are all just his name as an entry on long lists of contributors. For his business career, the references only mention his name in passing as company founder. I can't find any substantial independent coverage of him online in secondary WP:RS, apart from the cited profile of him in geektime.co.il. Anyone can give a TEDx. There might be more online in Hebrew: I've tried Googling for his name in Hebrew, and looked for him among other people with this name, but have come back empty-handed: a Hebrew speaker might have better luck. Borderline WP:Vanispamcruftisement tone strongly suggests an autobiography, and editor's only contributions so far are this article and the similarly poorly-sourced Simon-Apel about his family history.

Delete. (Self-)promotional article cobbled together from unreliable sources and passing mentions. Searches turn up nothing better. The creator quite obviously has a COI but has declined to disclose it. – Joe (talk) 13:35, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, if deleted, move the page Johnathan Simon (disambiguation) to Johnathan Simon (I only made that redirect seeing that this page went up, since there is bound to be more then one person with that variation of the name) Wgolf (talk) 15:08, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The sources are terrible, mostly just casual mentions. Have to agree with Joe. Hughesdarren (talk) 03:05, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per nom's assessment. Searches did not turn up enough to show they pass WP:GNG, and as already pointed out, doesn't meet any of the SN's either. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 11:51, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment according to WP:ANYBIO: "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times" As nomination for Forbes 30under30 is clearly a well known award. Furtheremore, he is listed in the Google's Hall of Fame in the link given under perior to 2015. Are there any other Hebrew contributors? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.55.153.185 (talk) 05:53, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Forbes produces 1740, 30 under 30 lists every year. It is certainly well known, and more common than the number of different teas you can buy but has zero use on Wikipedia. Fails WP:SIGCOV. scope_creep^Talk 11:36, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
