[edit] David Michael Jacobs

I started working on this page to remove the heavy POV, but after searching came to the conclusion that the subject is just not very notable. The page itself is a vanity page that reads like it was copied from his personal press. But, the situation is just unclear enough to qualify for VfD instead of speedy delete. Delete as not sufficiently notable. --Diderot 09:00, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

• Delete- I think he will have to wait to find a place here.--Bhadani 10:15, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete "executive-track trader". I've worked on trading floors before, and I can tell you that these folks are non-notable. It's not that they're not bright (the tests you have to pass are actually quite daunting) and if he's an up-and-commer perhaps he'll be notable someday, but not today. We don't even list most high-profile mutual fund portfolio managers yet, so traders are right out. -Harmil 11:08, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Not yet notable but perhaps later if he continues to enjoy success in his business career. Capitalistroadster 11:41, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, even a very successful trader is not notable unless he writes a book, gets news coverage, etc. Dcarrano 13:08, July 20, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Another trader. History will not remember him by his current accomplishments as Harmil said. If he does something further on, perhaps, but we can't know that. -- Consumed Crustacean | Talk | 15:14, July 20, 2005 (UTC)
• Do Not Delete, Debating the notability of Mr. Jacob's accomplishments is a futile and jejune enterprise. They extend far beyond the realm of trading. We should allow the article to be updated with his more pertinent achievements. --Boomtime 13:08, July 20, 2005 (CST)

• "More pertinent achievements"? This guy is 21 years old, recently out of college, and working in a non-notable position. --Blu Aardvark | ^{(talk) | (contribs) 18:17, 20 July 2005 (UTC)}

• Delete. Not-notable. --Blu Aardvark | ^{(talk) | (contribs) 18:17, 20 July 2005 (UTC)}
