Resumé and promotional article on a Non notable businessman who lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of them and also doesn’t meet WP:ANYBIO. A before search links me to primary sources, a plethora of press releases bordering on churnalism. I fail to see how holding executive leadership positions at non notable technology startups and Fortune 500 companies meets or is a requirement that demonstrates notability being met.

Delete- Couple things- very little coverage in secondary sources, and it seems like the article creator has a COI, given that they tried to create an article for the business that this subject if an executive of... Just look at their contributions [1]. Definitely a Delete to me. Spf121188 (talk) 18:42, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- I really think we need to create a rule that someone have say 25 contributions that are editing existing articles before they can create a first article. We have way too many drive-by contributors who start out either creating an article with which they had a COI, or who rush into creating an article without fully understanding the notability guidelines. At the same time we have an even larger problem of too many existing articles lacking even semi-adequate sources. The number of articles that have had a tag since 2009 or earlier, so for over 12 years, saying they have no sources is staggering.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:10, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - does not meet notability standards, appears promotional, Wikipedia is not a resume. Such-change47 (talk) 12:17, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
