Earl Leonard, Jr.

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Run of the mill non-notable businessman. I'm sure he is a nice guy, but there's nothing inherently notable about being a senior vice president for corporate affairs for Coca-cola. No third party sources, per WP:GNG; nothing to satisfy WP:BIO. The only provided sourceis just an now-offline alumni profile. GrapedApe (talk) 13:15, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - A quick spin around the Google doesn't generate anything which would seem to count towards GNG. Carrite (talk) 20:38, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - i think he is notable. I've found some links Dishv80 (talk) 22:15, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - no significant coverage in reliable sources as required by WP:BIO. ukexpat (talk) 21:42, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - if you look in the Google archives, there are tons of references, mostly behind paywall, to his time at Coke. See [1] and [2] and thanks to User:Fuhghettaboutit for his assistance in finding them at Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions. Gtwfan52 (talk) 22:50, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Those are all tangential mentions, failing the "Significant coverage" requirement of WP:GNG.--GrapedApe (talk) 01:17, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I don't see anything to suggest he meets the notability guidelines. I agree with User:GrapedApe that the references listed by User:Gtwfan52 aren't sufficient to show the level of coverage needed as evidence of notability.--Kubigula (talk) 03:48, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
