This article was accepted for mainspace and there has been no attempt to expand the article as it has only three sentences. There has been no attempt to establish notability. Doing a search for sources and all that was found was what is already in the article. All they said is he was Herbalife CEO and only one said that he helped the company through their troubles. Other than that, there is nothing notable about him.

Since when does CEO of an $8b dollar company for 15+ years not warrant an article on Wikipedia? The guy was Walt Disney International’s President. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1000:b07a:99fb:9d36:724:55d1:9941 (talk)

Keep. WP:TOOLITTLE is not a valid reason to delete an article, and there's plenty of sources available to use to expand it. --Nathan2055^{talk - contribs} 08:48, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Nathan2055: There has been no attempts to expand the article. If nothing else, it should be back in draft until it is suitable for mainspace. Mr. C.C.^{Hey yo!}_{I didn't do it!} 17:59, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
