Reads like a resume, no sources cited, deleted once as CSD A7. Guy (Help!) 20:21, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep Although the article needs to be cleaned up, Michael Chaney seems rather notable. Being chairman of the largest bank in Australia (National Australia Bank) and a director of the world's largest mining company (BHP Billiton) seems pretty significant. - PoliticalJunkie 20:32, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete unless sourced and referenced i.a.w. WP:BIO by end of this AfD. This article lacks totally second party sources and therefore fails WP:ATT AlfPhotoman 23:04, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per the following sources: [1][2][3][4]. I will incorporate the sources into the article at my first opportunity (unless someone beats me to it). Btw, the NAB is the equivalent of Bank of America in the US, so it's chairman is sure to be notable. -- Black Falcon 00:05, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per PoliticalJunkie and Black Falcon. Certainly notable but needs clean up. --Bduke 01:16, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep and cleanup. On the board of two of the top 10 Australian companies and the director of another notable Australian company Wesfarmers see [5]. While the article needs a cleanup, Chaney definitely meets WP:BIO. Capitalistroadster 01:32, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, clearly a notable business personality. Lankiveil 11:35, 4 March 2007 (UTC).
  • Keep This is DEFINATELY notable, and a quality stub on a quality person. Smbarnzy 12:44, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Australia-related deletions. -- Bduke 01:16, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep and seriously think about sanctioning nominator if he keeps making ludicrous nominations like this, let alone trying to speedy delete them first. Rebecca 00:38, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - I have cleaned up the entry a little. I agree with Bec's comments. Cheers -- Ianblair23 (talk) 04:06, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Highly notable, but in need of fixing. NAB is the biggest of Australia's "big four", and his role at Wesfarmers, a prominent Australian company, adds to this. Orderinchaos78 13:15, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable enough. —Moondyne 00:43, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. As per above I elliot 13:53, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
