This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Businesspeople. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting.

You can help maintain the list on this page:

  • To add a new AfD discussion (once it has already been opened on WP:AFD):
  • Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  • You can also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Businesspeople}}<small>—~~~~</small> to it, which will inform users that it has been listed here.
  • There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
  • Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
  • You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Businesspeople.

Please note that adding an AfD to, or removing it from, this page does not add it to, or remove it from, the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page, before adding it to this page.

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

[edit] Russ Fradin

Russ Fradin (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Probably fails WP:BIO. Involved with two successful small companies, but should be merged into pages for those companies, if they are notable themselves. - Snouter

  • Comment. There is another Russell Fradin who works as an executive, not to be confused with this one. - Snouter
  • Delete, unless someone can dig up some material on the man himself receiving public focus. - Vianello (talk) 23:04, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:51, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, WP:COATRACK, failure to provide any evidence of notability. Corvus cornixtalk 23:41, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep I wish people would not vote "delete" or "keep" on the basis of what is currently on a page. If you don't know a field, at least google the topic. Lots of lousy pages are improved over time if they are left up. This one made me just curious enough to type :"Russ Fradin" Adify , into google and news google. This guy is clearly attracting real attention as an individual entrepreneur. Unfortunately , I don't know enoughh about this business to write it up. It seems clear that he deserves an article. keep and put up needs improvement. Needs A LOT of improvement.Elan26 (talk) 01:05, 10 June 2008 (UTC)Elan26
  • Delete per WP:V and WP:BIO. Article can be recreated if and when reliable sources that establish notability are compiled. (Having an immediatist philosophy, my personal opinion is that we absolutely should be judging articles "on the basis of what is currently on the page". Deletion until a proper article can be written is not a big deal.) — Satori Son 18:14, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Neutral. I first voted delete, then keep when I saw there were news sources. I added a few. But honestly, most of the sources more demonstrate the notability of the company mentioned, Adify, than the man himself, who seems notable only in his position as president of the company. No source provided anything resembling biographic detail beyond that. Probably the best course of action would be to create an Adify article and redirect Russ Fradlin to that. I'd create the Adify article myself, but I've no mind for business topics, and after reading six news articles, I still couldn't possibly tell you what exactly Adify was in the business of.

[edit] Robert Holleyman

This article should be deleted because it lacks information about an unknown, unless it is expanded by someone who knows a lot about the man this article is dedicated to. Furthermore, any additional information should be backed by credible sources. Voice of Reason 19:00, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

I forgot to mention that the information provided in this article is explicitly implied in the one concerning the Business Software Alliance. So there's no need to retain this really short article. Voice of Reason 20:14, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak keep. As it stands, it isn't worth keeping, but the fellow is very notable indeed. He has had quite a legal career before landing at the BSA. I will try and put something up in the next day or two, but will not oppose a deletion until we have enough on an article. The stub is pretty useless. Ohconfucius 10:14, 16 August 2006 (UTC) Strong keep. Article has now been rewritten. No doubts at all about his notability. Ohconfucius 03:23, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - Subject looks notable enough to me, anyway. Dugwiki 17:10, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Geoff McIntosh

subject is not notable per vanity piece by non notable person WP:VAIN 56Ghits for "Geoff McIntosh" + binary. Article is suspected autobiography, as info is unverifiable (User:GeeMac per WP:V and WP:AUTO Ohconfucius 05:19, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete - reads like an autobiography, not particularly notable. Leuko 08:17, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, WP:NOT a resume host site. NawlinWiki 14:14, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Per above. 11kowrom 19:23, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete --Peta 05:35, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Liane Ricci

Self written article, I don't think the subject is notable enough for her own article. talk to JD wants e-mail 14:58, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete, unsourced, nothing in article indicating that anyone in the art world considers her to be notable (i.e., showings, works in museums, etc). NawlinWiki 15:02, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete the show at Susan Eley Fine Artis verifiable but she was just one of three artists. Not yet notable enough. Dlyons493 Talk 20:21, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
