[edit] Non-notable?

So, someone who makes billion dollar decisions affecting thousands of lives is not notable enough to warrent a Wikipedia entry? If the issue is sources, I can post links to the company websites. If that will get people to help build the content, fine. But just deleting for deletion sake is worrisome. What are we afraid of, that we'll have too much information here? All that attitude is going to do is drive people towards other collaboration sites.

If there's a vote on this, I'll vote to keep. If you want sources, let me know. Chadlupkes 17:40, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
