[edit] CitizenM
Janitorial nomination after I declined speedy deletion. On the one hand, it's an article about a hotel company which hasn't built any hotels! On the other, it's founder is (presumably) notable (blue linked), the company has won an award, and is apparently the subject of multiple non-trivial news reports. Crystal ball or notable? You decide. kingboyk (talk) 14:08, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
- Delete A hotel chain that has no hotels yet, but wishes to talk up an entirely new concept in hotels looks like a crystal ball, and an attempt to get some additional publicity for the concept. The founder may well be notable, but notability isn't inherited by anything he is involved in Mayalld (talk) 14:13, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per Mayalld --Storkk (talk) 14:29, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
- Delete I hate to be the second person to simply say "per Mayalld" but it expresses my argument completely. -Verdatum (talk) 15:20, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Lennert de Jong, creator of the article, is Distribution and Business Development Director for CitizenM [1]. AlasdairGreen27 (talk) 17:32, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, but there's no way of verifying that User:Lennertdejong is actually him. — Wenli (reply here) 00:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
Are you serious? Surely not. No connection between Lennert de Jong, Business Development Director for CitizenM and User:Lennertdejong. Well, what a coincidence, then. AlasdairGreen27 (talk) 01:43, 15 December 2007 (UTC)- I agree with you that there may be a connection, but it's not verifiable. User:BillGates probably isn't Bill Gates and User:George W. Bush probably isn't George W. Bush. — Wenli (reply here) 02:26, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, but there's no way of verifying that User:Lennertdejong is actually him. — Wenli (reply here) 00:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Weak delete A quick Google search shows that the company may be notable, but they haven't even built any hotels. Re-create the article when the hotels actually materialize. — Wenli (reply here) 00:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
