Russ Fradin

Probably fails WP:BIO. Involved with two successful small companies, but should be merged into pages for those companies, if they are notable themselves. - Snouter

Comment. There is another Russell Fradin who works as an executive, not to be confused with this one. - Snouter
Delete, unless someone can dig up some material on the man himself receiving public focus. - Vianello (talk) 23:04, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

Delete, WP:COATRACK, failure to provide any evidence of notability. Corvus cornix_talk 23:41, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I wish people would not vote "delete" or "keep" on the basis of what is currently on a page. If you don't know a field, at least google the topic. Lots of lousy pages are improved over time if they are left up. This one made me just curious enough to type :"Russ Fradin" Adify , into google and news google. This guy is clearly attracting real attention as an individual entrepreneur. Unfortunately , I don't know enoughh about this business to write it up. It seems clear that he deserves an article. keep and put up needs improvement. Needs A LOT of improvement.Elan26 (talk) 01:05, 10 June 2008 (UTC)Elan26[reply]
Delete per WP:V and WP:BIO. Article can be recreated if and when reliable sources that establish notability are compiled. (Having an immediatist philosophy, my personal opinion is that we absolutely should be judging articles "on the basis of what is currently on the page". Deletion until a proper article can be written is not a big deal.) — Satori Son 18:14, 10 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral. I first voted delete, then keep when I saw there were news sources. I added a few. But honestly, most of the sources more demonstrate the notability of the company mentioned, Adify, than the man himself, who seems notable only in his position as president of the company. No source provided anything resembling biographic detail beyond that. Probably the best course of action would be to create an Adify article and redirect Russ Fradlin to that. I'd create the Adify article myself, but I've no mind for business topics, and after reading six news articles, I still couldn't possibly tell you what exactly Adify was in the business of.
