[edit] Michael Wolf
non-notable — J3ff 05:12, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
His book was a bestseller and is often quoted, and he heads the largest media and entertainment consulting practice. There are many, many Googles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.170.226.90 (talk • contribs) on 06:47, 10 August 2005
- Keep/Rewrite. Published author, although the article reads too much like an advertisement for my tastes. --Alan Au 08:00, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep but rewrite so it doesn't read so much like a sales pitch 192.18.1.5 14:52, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, it's barely not a copyvio of his promotional bio. When he does something notable, then write an article about him. —thames 18:49, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
- Weak Keep The book only has an amazon rank of ~150k, so it's certainly not a best seller. However, there were reviews in it by the heads of MTV and AOL, which implies that he might be somewhat notable. However, he is essentially only a buisness consultant (and not the head of the consulting company). A very high level consultant at a very important company, but more a VP, and less a CEO, from what I could tell. --Icelight 22:48, August 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep I wrote the article on Michael Wolf, I am new to writing articles on wikipedia. I am sorry for my writing style, perhaps too much like a bio as stated above. I just re-wrote it. Hopefully you approve. If not, ideas would be appreciated. I have other articles that I want to write about and subjects / people related to economics. I would like to work out an approved style with this article before I tackle a large one. Thanks for all your feedback.
