~~No notability outside of Prodege. Fails WP:GNG. Prince of Thieves (talk) 13:36, 20 March 2018 (UTC)~~ — Striking per WP: SOCKSTRIKE. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 01:34, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And the article was created by Nicoleprodege, unlikely coincidence? Clearly an SPA which explains why there is so much unsourced info on his early life, and basically everything expect his being chief of Prodege.

- Delete - Not notable. Acnetj (talk) 22:03, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - few press releases but nothing more. Lorstaking (talk) 10:48, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - "No notability outside of Prodege", he is a businessman. He is supposed to be notable because of his business. E.g. Donald Trump is notable only because of his business career and presidency of the US. He wouldn't have a Wikipedia article if those are not considered. As for Chuck Davis, there are sources like [1][2][3][4][5]. KingAndGod 14:31, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I found some more third party coverage, and added it. I also culled some of the unsourced promotional info. Davis served as CEO for three companies on Wikipedia, and is an active partner with Technology Crossover Ventures, a >$2.5 Billion VC firm that should have its own article.[[6]] I'm looking for other coverage to add now.

Keep there is too much bias against businesspeople and toward inclusion of sports and actors here. Legacypac (talk) 19:36, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And the reason why you think we should keep this one is? ×º°”˜`”°º×ηυηzια×º°”˜`”°º× 21:03, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - at this state, a mere CV/promo page. ×º°”˜`”°º×ηυηzια×º°”˜`”°º× 21:03, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Those can be sorted by editing. Not a reason to delete. KingAndGod 17:59, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I added some more info with sourcing, and culled some of the unsourced info to make it less problematic. Does that change anyone's delete vote? TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 17:49, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
