  • I added additional information, to make clear that Jean-Pierre de Launoit is one of Belgium's top businesspeople and of of international stature. Pvosta 18:40, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep as there are a handful of citations on Google News Archive showing that he has been prominent in Belgian financial circles for some years (1982, NYT[1], although he is not the topic of that article). Pvosta, beyond just asserting it, can you provide more reliable sources such as interviews and profiles to demonstrate his notability and assure verifiability? --Dhartung | Talk 20:24, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
    • I added two addtional sources (interview & IYMF). Pvosta 12:05, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Delete does not appear to be the primary subject of independent sources. Eluchil404 08:28, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete per Eluchil404. Not the primary subject of any articles, so fails WP:BIO's first criterion. — coelacan talk — 04:39, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Delete. He appears to be the primary subject of this article, but that's the only one I could find. Pending another source, I agree that he does not appear to meet BIO.--Kubigula (talk) 19:17, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
