[edit] Derek ivany

Appears non-notable. This guy certainly exists, but Googling for "Derek Ivany" gets more and higher-rated hits for someone else entirely. I'd say this probably fails WP:BIO and is vanity, but it's not clear-cut, hence I brought it for a vote. What does the panel think? - Just zis Guy, you know?

Google Search & Yahoo Search both yield Derek Ivany as top search result. http://ca.prweb.com/releases/2005/11/prweb305605.htm - Google mentions Derek, Vietnam and His Indochina Securities Inc.

Yahoo Search returns Yahoo Finance - Insider Filings for Another Public Company Derek Ivany serves as a Director For

I nominated Mr.Ivany as he has helped transform the Vietnamese equity markets. Shing Lo

He also contrals the medias in my Country Viet Nam. He is doing stocks and data for our markets. I know Mr.Ivany like good friend he is young man only 22 years and already very successful and sometimes on TV on Viet1 for the business.

Noone is saying he doesn't exist, or that he isn't nice or successful. Just, he doesn't yet merit an enyclopedia article. GhostGirl 08:15, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Fair enough. Perhaps there is another area for internet searchers to find him?

  • Mr Ivany posted the following message at the help mailinglist.

To whom it may concern:

I have been advised that my name is been placed on your online encyclopedia as some sort of joke or prank. My name Derek Ivany is currently catergorized as an article for deletion. This affords the notion that I am somewhat uncredable or unworthy of acknowledgement. I am not sure what your organization is about or why my name is there. But I do not want to have my name or image defamed with some sort of online rhetoric. Please have my name removed from your website.

Regards,

Derek Ivany President & CEO Indochina Securities Inc.

Given the concerns about whether he meets our criteria, perhaps it ought to be deleted. Capitalistroadster 09:58, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
