2009 N/C No Consenseus. No evidence since of further posthumous notability. StarM 21:32, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - Seems like his only "claim to fame" is a Johnson & Johnson ad, and it doesn't even seem worth mentioning in that article (maybe if there were already a section in that article about their ad campaigns...). ~EdGl talk 22:13, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
- Edit: I just noticed that this is the second nomination (I guess "N/C" in the nomination meant "no consensus"), and the article was created by the grandchild of the article's subject. So add "conflict of interest" as another strike against keeping this article. ~EdGl talk 01:25, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing that out, @EdGl:. I have edited my nomination so it's clearer. StarM 03:15, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
- Delete not even close to meeting the GNG. It is because we let such clearly non-notable articles pass AfD in 2009 that we have such troubles keeping Wikipedia accurate and meeting verifiability now.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:44, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:GNG, WP:MILL, and WP:CREATIVE. An advertising person can be notable, but it's rare, such as Shelly Palmer, who wrote the Meow_Mix jingle. (My apologies, but you will now have that stupid Meow meow meow meow stuck in your head for the next 24 hours.) Bearian (talk) 19:53, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
- Delete in good Wikipedian fashion (just as we are told the subject moved to Rye in good adman fashion). The article is highly biased, written like an obituary, and utterly lacks significant personal independent coverage in reliable sources. FalconK (talk) 04:58, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
