Fails WP:GNG, WP:SIGCOV. Whole article derives the notability through a single event (as most of the sources point towards it). - Hatchens (talk) 18:14, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As the creator of the article. The article passes WP:GNG easily with the references presented in the article. Insider trading is a serious offense, so it should have more coverage. But the fact that other points in the article were covered makes it not a BLP1E material. The offense got wide coverage because he is notable, not the other way. I don’t see any problems in using the insider trading links largely as a reference since all those passes WP:RS. - The9Man ^(Talk) 15:03, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

~~Strong~~ Weak keep based on the talk page discussion and the sources. It seems like this clearly meets notability as there's sustained coverage about a number of things including business stuff, polo, insider trading/white collar crime, and philanthropy (all the rich people hobbies). The best sources currently on the page are in The Times,[1] Bloomberg,[2][3] The Telegraph,[4] City A.M.,[5] and Financial Times.[6][7][8] I found more coverage (about various things) in Jerusalem Post,[9] International Business Times,[10] and Fashion Week Daily.[11] Per Hatchens's comments, it needs a lot of info added to be more balanced. Right now it has barely any negative info about the guy even though him being accused of insider trading seems like it was a big deal. I'm gonna edit this to make it more balanced by adding information about him insider trading, and add some more sources. There's more info about that in The News International,[12] and Wall Street Journal.[13]. Tbh I'm changing to weak keep because this guy seems like a jerk, and he tried to manipulate newspapers to make his stocks go up. The fact that rich people can do that to real newspapers is giving me an existential crisis. Who knows if any of these sources are reliable or if they all got insider "tips"?BuySomeApples (talk) 05:55, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
